you should be seeing around 30psi easily... but since your reading off the electronic sensor you cant tell what kind of boost your really seeing because of your boost fooler....
I've got the real gauges too. Thats where I'm seeing the 25+ sometimes pushin 30.

[quote]if you feel your truck is underpowered call up Elite and let them know. maybe he can make you a better tune... if not... dump it and get yourself a chip... you want a real set of gauges anyways... you need to accurately read your boost and your trans temp... your stock OEM trans temp gauge is just a dummy light and is very inaccurate.[quote]

Jeez Raul, are ya slippin? I don't have a stock trans temp. LOL.

yah your stock setup will not support tha tune.. reason why a custom tuned should be tuned to your truck specifically.. your truck stock can only see around 80 to 90 hp over stock.. so no point in putting a 140hp tune if your stock setup wont support it.. your truck will prob run way better with a tune specifically designed to what you got...
I know you're right on this, but I was assuming that when they needed my strategy code and what mods I had that it was somewhat custom tuned for my tuck specifically. I kind of went with the 140 just to have the smoke when I wanted it, but at the track it was the fastest of my tunes (80, 120,140), so I've kind of stuck with it.

I've talked to Elite (not Tadd personally) and they basically just said it's the fuel. So I'm going to try and talk to him since he writes the tunes. And I've been tempted to just go with a chip.

Thanks for the input
