It consistently spikes to right under 20lbs and holds 16-18 consistently. However, on WOT upshifts I hear a fluttering sound, the boost drops to maybe 10psi and takes a couple seconds to scroll back up. Once or twice it felt a little uneven, like a slight surge in boost, dropping a little bit and then climbing again, but most of the time it's just shift-drop to 10lbs-fluttery noise and scrolling back up to full boost in a couple seconds.
Initial googling says the fluttering sound is normal. I can't tell if I'm just being a paranoid new parent and it just takes the turbo a little bit longer to reach it's new maximum boost, or if something is actually acting up. :dunno:
Yeah, can't say that I've experienced that.
I'll use this as an excuse to test mine at WOT however
to compare.
