Boost at altitude?
Boost at altitude?
My dealer told me I would never get more than 10psi boost at this altitude (Colorado) is he right or just don't want to check my car for a problem? I only have ever gotten 10psi since i've owned it. Is this because I'm a mile high or is my dealer higher? ~

I am a 7000ft and when i put the interceptor guage in it showed i was getting 6.5 max in third while my stock said it was getting 10. I got the 3" pulley on now and get 10 when its warm and 11 when its cold. The 2.8" should get me up to 12, but the a super charger is not like a turbo, it doesn't create tons of extra boost so you going to lose some at altitude. What altitude are you at?
EDIT: saw you were a mile high so when i am in albuquerque i was getting 8 or so PSI stock which is probably close to your PSI that you are getting now. With the 3" i get very close to 12 but i don't think i have actually gotten it yet.
