    I am pretty sure stock is between 6-8, depending on temp, altitude, ect.. I usually see around 6.5-7 where I live.

    im making 10.5-11.5 depending on temp on a 3.4 with headers and ported blower/LIM
    was making up 13ish before headers on a 3.4 with 3in down pipe

    the lower number is actually better tho its not all about having a big number for boost

    10.5-11.7 on a 3.3. A guy I know, bet me that you cant get more than 8lbs of boost out of GTP without blowing the motor. So, I shot this vid and it made me $50.


    03 GTP...Its got pulleys and stuff.
