can anyone verify the correlation between the lengths of the actuator and the boost pressure?

ie. 125mm = 7 psi, 130mm = 10psi, etc.

i’ve read this somewhere before but was hoping someone here knew for sure.

thanks.

if you set the hks one to the same length as stock it will be 6.5 psi

Get a boost gauge and giver’

Every application will be different, depending on your supporting mods.

yeah, i have the Megan guage but haven’t installed it yet.

i’ll get around to it sometime… was really just trying to verify what i had read somewhere. i suppose i’ll also measure after i install the guage (for future reference).
