Boost Question Well i just got my car back a little over a week ago and the first few days it was showing a steady 8lbs of boost...Then i took a friend for a ride and half the time it was showing 5 and the other half it was showing 8lbs...And I figure i was starting to see belt slippage....Then the other night i took a couple of friends for a ride(colder) and it was showing a 10 to 11lbs of boost everytime and i got on it like 5 times...My gauge seems to be working fine...i really don't want to see that much boost on stock internals and i don't want to only see 5lbs...What gives???

put the car up on jack stands and see if theres any belt dust on your headunit.......
also see if your belt is tight enough...... Black LS1TA told me the best way tot do it and it worked for me.......
grab the belt with your pointer and thumb and if you can twist the belt more then 90 degree's in any direction its to lose....... that worked for me....

What do you think caused it to get up to 11lbs of boost....And its not like it just did it one time it was through out the whole night...As soon as i get chance i'll check the belt and see whats going on.....
