Boost Reference

I have a 5lb spring in my wastegate, and I am going to run an electronic boost controller, when everything is installed, when I turn on the boost controller will it be at 5psi or will there be some guess work involved???

reverse splits are good for turbos.

the profect should have a instructions manual right? also im under the impressuon that the profec when it is first started up puts boost to 0 automaticly, so ur boost will be wtvr ur spring is set for also the profec should have a mas boost limiter that u can set for safety
