I bought a IX about a month ago, got my boost gauge in, and found that i am peaking boost at 17PSI and i taper off to 13,14 by around 6K. I live in Idaho where the elevation is about 5000. Is this normal boost behavior due to my elevation? or should i be concerned about boost leaks, anything else?
they normally run to 19 and taper to 16-17 but that would be at sea level. someof the other members in the mountains may have some insight. Just get a MBC and turn it up a little.

So you would suggest getting a MBC and get it closer to the 19 a stock IX should be? Anyone at high altitude know how safe that would be on a stock IX? (only mod is k&n intake) or would it be wise to wait for the TBE before i start turning up the boost?
