    What elevation are you?

    Also, increasing exhaust, or intake efficiency of flow will decrease the psi reading.

    Seriously. Don't know if you have Lucario Runner's before and after dynos with the URD Y, but it is very impressive!

    Supercharged.
    Yes, I think so. The most best mod is a wideband gauge if you want a healthy truck.

    what type of gauge are you reading psi from? digital?

    might be picking up a bad signal

    Basically Sea level here in Seattle. Also it was at night. During the day it's a couple psi lower.

    I've got the 2.85 stealth pulley and hit 7.5 PSI on my boost gauge. AFE CAI and TRD Catback at the moment. I'm around 700 Ft elevation. 12 PSI seems high for the 2.8 pulley unless you are spinning some major RPM. Granted this video below is at 90° ambient outside plus humidity, your cooler air may be helping.

    Supercharged.


    Agreed, I'm hitting the same thing with volant cai and 2.85. 10.2 on stock fuel pump.

    There's a mechanical gauge and an electrical gauge (plx brand for example). so if you have anthe eletrical gauge and didn't properly get a signal you'd be getting a bad reading. Otherwise, it would really take alot to git anything over 10psi...surely more than just the 2.85 pulley.

    From what I read there....wait. You're too focused on MPG instead of what you want the truck for.

    So for another noob question is the ideal to have the psi low as possible? I understand elevation plays a part but I'm guessing lower psi is better?

    The cooler air always helps in higher psi. :D

    Here is a video I took, temps were in the lower 70s this time. Still hitting 9psi.

    Is the TRD Supercharger safe on CA crap gas?

    I see you have the TRD intake also. I'm guess it works ok with the charger and is CARB legal as well?
