when is the v2 supposed to reach full boost?

i just installed v2 kit and i notice i don't get to full boost untill around 5000rpm is this normal? does anyone have a graph or chart that shows the boost curve? also what should i do about the redline at 6600 rpm should i get a computer upgrade and if so what rpm is a safe redline this is my everyday driver (still making payments

thanks for all you help

In a centrifugal SC boost is directly proportional to RPM. Theoretically, peak boost would be at the highest RPM you rev to.

Depens on the size of your pulley. With a 2.875 I see boost at pretty low rpm's. And max boost will be at redline. Also I don't think there is ant way for us to raise are redline.
Anyone correct me if I am wrong.

Well if you look at his sig pic and his profile "he has a 01"...raised rev limiter are only available on the 95',96' and some early 97's....as for the 01' I'm pretty sure they havent cracked that yet...there still workin on the 97-99

that really sucks how we just got passed through an era...they missed us, a very important item in a car's performance, no one is going to even make for us. We'll always be at a disadvantage. It's a setup i tell ya! Someone hatin on the better 4th gens

There is one situation where max boost will be before redline, and that is if your belt starts to slip. When that happens your boost will drop as the coefficient of friction between belt and pulley transitions from static to the lower kinetic value.
