stock boost?

[inneed4dsm]

could somebody please post like a picture on here of stock (peek) boost on the stock boost gauge of a 2g talon... or just tell me roughly where the needle should be... my car appears to be bone stock but everyone is saying its not pushing stock boost... there saying that the guy who had it before me bent the arm on the wastegate to push more ...i just dont believe it.. a description of where the needle should be would be great... pic... even better!!! thanks

im pretty sure mine gos all the way to the top. but its not factory. 14.1 psi is factory boost controller settings on these cars. when mine was factory it prob went up 3/4 of the way up. hope that helps a little.

The stock gauge is just a "guess" that the ecu calculates. It's ~half accurate at best.. First mod should be a real boost gauge to accurately measure what you're working with.

You'll never see a consistent result using the stock gauge. It's more for entertainment than anything.

Get a reliable aftermarket boost gauge. Soon. This should be the first thing anyone does.

Your stock boost gauge will go all the way to the top.
But like the above have mentioned it is NOT accurate as there are no numbers or any readings on it. It's worthless.
Get an aftermarket gauge. And you should be running 12-14 psi stock
