Didn't notice those AFR numbers on your other thread. Seems like the tune is also off some. 9.9 is way rich.

the boost changes seem totally normal for a procharger set-up and your AFR's are set in your tune

Also are you spraying meth at a constant rate? This would also explain your AFR's.

The 3600 stall sounds like a great choice. The drop in boost sounds about right. What are you shifting at? Those partiot springs can handle some high RPM's so you might consider winding it up a little higher to hold the boost.

Like Sharpshooter said, the AFR's are in your tune. Even with a non-progressive Meth kit, your tuner can compensate for the Meth. I imagine dailing in your tune will also make it pull harder which will make the boost recover faster.

It will get there . The D-1SC is a great blower with a ton of potential.

i think i get what u are saying move the controller of meth to start spraying 10% from 0-10 lbs and full from 11-13 right so the af could stay the same along the line right ?
