I have a TN and with my AEM Tru boost controller on the lowest settings I will hit around 11lbs. I have to run with my BC off and I still hit around 9.5. Makes me NERVOUS!!! I don't have any other mods that affect intake/exhaust or back pressure. It seems silly to me that I should need to lower the 9lbs wastegate spring and a B.C. should keep the W.G. closed until preset boost hit and release before you go above preset limit.
Is that so much to ask?!

I'm going to use the Utec to control mine now.
BTW I have a six speed.

no overboosting issues...i run at 8.8 psi...when it got really cold i went as high as 9.2 psi but my a:f stayed under 11.5 so i just drove a lil easy but that was still ok a:f on the safety side....currently using the JIC 3" Ti exhaust non resonated and UTEC...no EBC, just overboost relocation pipe

i agree it has its limitations, which is why i like the tuner version of this kit better, and by this i am not going to just say that you must run a UTec(you figure out which one you want)
I love the TN kit, looks HOT!
