Default RE: 24 SPIKE!!!!

I actually have the autometer 30 psi boost guage, that's why I'm flipping out. With the stock boost guage I would have had no idea, but spiking that high is very concerning for me. I think I'm gonna adjust it as far as possible in the opposite direction and go from there. I'd much rather spike 12 and hold 9 than spike 25 and hold 17 like I did last night. I do think I'm on the right track though, I've got 1st boosting about 12-13, second with no spike at all, just like holding 15, 3rd spiking 19, holding about 17, fourth is still flying up around 22, then falling to like 17-18, don't know about fifth. Also, should my turbo sound like an F-16 powering up for takeoff at only like 2000 RPM's with hardly any throttle at all?

My whole car sounds like an F16 at 2000rpms, dont feel bad. Then again my exhaust makes it worse.

If your gonna run over 19psi, get rid of the mopar bov. It'll leak past that.

On My set up (stg1, Mopar exhaust, AEM CAI, Stg 2 WGA) what don't I need to boost past? 17? 18? I'm for safety over insane boost. Also, just got back from another adjustment run and still spiking about 20, holding 16-18, except in fourth, where it's more like 21-22, holding bout 18-19. Do you think I should leave this and drive it for a while to let the computer learn, or readjust first? Thanks for all the help!

Spike 19 PSI, then let it hold whatever it will hold below that.
