How to keep constant boost lvls?
What would be the best thing to buy to help keep constant boost pressure? AEM Boost controller/gauge, Grimmspeed selenoid, boost pill... I think it's our turbo that causes that(?), but is there any way to help or stop that drop in boost pressure in higher rpms with oem turbo?
FYI I will be getting the AEM boost gauge anyways, even if it does nothing to help. It really looks good.
Thanks.

to answer the main question rocky, no, on the stock RA turbo, there is nothing we can add to hold our peak pressure through out the power band.
The reason being the turbo is simply too small to flow 22-25 psi constantly through the entire band. It falls off at about 5200 rpm regardless. A tune does take that 9psi at reline stock to something more in the 12-17 range, which is very nice.
