I do go to full throttle as soon as i stage to get the boost as high as possible. Do you think it would help to add brake pressure and be able to leave at a higher rpm?
Sounds kinda high for the RPM. I can make 6-7 @ 3500 .The brakes won't hold higher than that. I'm working on a smaller diameter converter right now. I figure it'll take 4000 rpm to get to 10-11 lbs.
You said "stock brakes" . Is that stock vacuum assisted brakes?
