What is your peak psi setting? Do you have a boost gauge to show if youre getting any spike? And is this only at WOT?

well boost spike in a nutshell is when youre creating boost and it "spikes" momentarily above your optimal psi setting, then later settles back down. for example when i was boost spiking my peak psi was set at 16.5. When i was at WOT when my boost built it shot violently way over 16, more like 20 to 23 psi, then it would bounce back down to 16, then spike back up , then down.

heres a link thatll have more info about that:

do you know what psi itll start to do cut at? Is your ecu custom tuned? If it is youre probably better off consulting your tuner.
