To calculate the boost without a boost gauge using your map sensor. Take the reading with key on, engine off. Then go do some fun stuff. Take the highest number and subtract it from reading with the engine off. So looks like you should be around 8.5psi. When it’s cold out I’ve seen mine get up to about 10psi.
As for the throttle, that’s just the way it is at max throttle. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen it read 100%. I just looked at a log for my truck, 85% was the highest. That’s actual throttle position as well. Desired throttle position on mine maxes at 76% as well.
They will never go to a 100%,as that puts the blade straight up and down,and there's a chance it'll stick in that position.Are you sure you've seen 85% throttle opening Dan,as that's more then most,it's usually in the 75% range. Us nitrous guys have to play with the throttle opening if we're running a wide open activation switch,lol
