SSTT Boost Levels

EastCoast335i · 07-28-2008, 10:06 AM

What peak boost levels is everyone seeing for the SSTT?

On a boost gauge with 93 octane everything else stock, close to sea level, temp 80f; Saw a peak of 13.6...
Usually peak readings are around 10.5-12psi...
Just surprised at a 13.6.

10.5-12 seems right. I'm holding in the 11's, and it tapers to 10. I only see 12 in 1st and second gear, and it might spike to 12 for a second, in 3rd.

More then likely it was a spike... And I havent been able to reproduce anything above 12psi since.

So is it correct to say that even a stock 335i will have boost spikes?
