lbs of boost

[donnyonee]

when i had my car tuned and had the pressure gauge on the blower. i did not see the 10 lbs of boost till the engine rpm was 6 or 6,500 rpm.
ld like to see 10 lbs with lower rpm. and a bov take care of more/excess?
or is this the difference between the diffeent makes of blowers? twin screw or centrifical? is this norm for the saleen twin screw?
am i not understanding correctly?
thanks, don

Put a 3.2" pulley on it. Mine hits 10 psi as soon as I whack it now and climbs to 13 on the gauge at WOT. You can also adjust you boost bypass valve to get the boost to come in harder and earlier. The little stop screw on the arm should be adjusted to where the tab on the arm is vetical at rest.

That's just cruel picking on a supercharged guy like that.

Ditto... instant full boost.

That's just Ron... personally, I think he puts the belts on inside out and upside down.
