I hit 10 psi everytime I come to a stop pretty much. This motor is going on about 10,000 boosted miles so far and many, many more to come.

Re:How often do you hit full boost?

whenever I feel like it...most of the time I just bring the revs above 3k and stay at part throttle to stay around 2-4psi or so and have plenty of fun right there...but when I either DO feel like punching it or if I hit a light against say a factory turbo 1.8T v-dubb or whatnot I'll light into it from the line and have some 6psi intercooled fun :P

damn I need a boost controller to get it back to 9psi haha
