Here is some good info on the boost limit. I am totally turning this off before i head home
The picture above shows the boost limit table and the boost delay table on a stock Evo 9. What does it mean? If your Evo hits a load higher than 255 (approximately 22 psi) for 1 second, then the boost cut will kick in. The higher the rpm goes, the lower the limit. So at 7000 rpm if your EVO hits loads of more than 235 for 1 seocnd, then the boost cut will kick in. This is an excellent safety feature that Mitsubishi engineered into the ECU.
Under no circumstances should you eliminate this safety feature on 91 octane pump gas. When it comes to boost limit, just set the limit slightly higher and please leave the boost delay alone. Setting the boost limit @ 300 or maxing it out to 319 simply removes the safety from your ECU in case of an overboost condition. Here is the way I set the boost limit on an Evo running on 91 octane gas:

let it ride!
overboost checks are for babies. my map sensor is maxxed out so i don't have any overboost protection. that's how i've always had to run. i have a gm 3bar that i need to install to get some headroom.
