All connections are tight. Gaskets are new and sealed. Boost gauge is plumbed in Y-pipe. It's a Prosport gauge. Do you think it could be the accuracy of the gauge?

Also the AFR doesn't get leaner then 10.9 through the entire RPM band, even on a 3rd gear WOT run in 20 degree weather. The fuel system is adequate. I think it's running too rich actually and we are leaning it out a tad.

Doesn't the 185mm boost over 20 psi?
When i was running stacked 68mm s/c with a 178mm crank i got up to 20.5
psi but had to shut her down due to extreme lean conditions that started at about 19 psi. You should be in the 23-25 psi range with that setup.Got A gasket leak some where ?
