Default Got Altitude? When's full boost?

Just wondering about others' experience with boost at altitude. I'm at 6000 feet and dont see full boost until around 4000-4200 RPM with the TO4E. Also - have any of you guys tested your car/setup at sea level to see how much sooner the boost rocks or how much different the AFR is? Thanks

Mike, I sent you a reply to your email.. There is a chance that you do not have the map loaded into the SMT6...

thanks John will recheck. The premise for my post is that since the SMT6 has a capacity to load 2 maps I wondered if I should devise a sea level map as well as an altitude map to use on those road trips "down valley. " I presume that the fuel settings would be different based on the change in air density?

Certainly you can have dual maps, I'll be interested to see if there will be a difference in the maps (if any). Email me directly when you are ready to continue the fine tuning..
