Apples and oranges, the don't compare. Bigger displacement and bigger turbo. Of course you'll make more boost. I'm not piling a sled at the county fair. I choose to make at least 7 mpg wherever i go. That means I can from ga up 77 and 81 grossing 76k with cruise on the whole way (because I'm lazy) and avg 6.7 for the trip.
What's your boost d12?

Ive finally taken care of the egr valves. Otrperf.
Next, im going to install a boost gauge.
I do still have a pretty big problem with turbo. I just had it off 2 weeks ago, to replace ex mani gaskets. Looked fine, mechanic approved of it. But when im climbing , heavy, i hear a pretty sizable hiss. Only under full throttle . Oncei flatten out, it goes away.
Here is my question tho....is there an actuator on this turbo....where is it? -
Most likely a leaking intercooler hiss....That's exactly how mine acted.
