I have it set to 2psi above my tune.

Headsex Donating Members 2,528 Member For: 19y 9m 1d Gender: Male Location: Melb Posted 13/08/13 02:44 AM Share Posted 13/08/13 02:44 AM The boost level jumps on ALL autos, 4speed or 6 speed.If its tuned in closed loop, the PCM will command 0duty as it exceeds the overboost limit, but even this is not enough to stop the spike.Seeing as though you have enough time to look at the boost gauge whilst driving hard, I suggest you go out and get more mods/power to distract you from the boost gauge 5 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/85863-has-any-checked-their-boost-on-zf-gear-change/#findComment-1415401 Share on other sites More sharing options...
