    I just want to know by technical parameters d13 425hp engine how much boost pressure in psi by maximum loaded under hill...My pressure-gauge turbo boost on dashboard shows 28-29 psi under hill by full loaded truck.

    Well, your not over boosting. Best to keep boost low and use the gearing to move the truck. Saves the engine and turbo, along with your fuel.
