Ive currently go the scanguage hooked up and it can read boost pressure, but now Im looking at the edge cts with egt probe. Do I also get the edge boost sensor as well or is the factory one accurate and reliable up to lets say 50psi?

I've never seen mine read over 19 so that's why I was curious... Guess I'll be getting edges Eas boost sensor with the pyrometer then... Thanks

Using an Edge CTS and worried about reading boost pressure over 50psi?!? WTF? Doubtful you'd ever see 28 with that.

I'll probably never see 50 but I said up to 50 anyways ... Not over 50... Is there a problem with edge that I dont know about? I really would like to stay away from the pillar mounted gauges and the edge seemed like my best bet... But if you say I'll have problems at 28 psi then please enlighten me...

Never said you'd have problems with a CTS, just trying to tell you not to worry about it. I just think you're hoping/expecting more performance out of the CTS than its capable of, is all.

Not at all if I can get something that will read egts and boost reliably I'm happy and everything else is a plus
