Your boost at +3 is 5.8psi

Does the boost drop off as you are throttling?
When the air comes out of the blow off valve is it coming out while accelerating or once you've backed off.
What bov is it, and i assume it is running atmospherically?
its just the stock bov till the one i ordered comes in. and ya, i made it run atmospherically. i didnt really notice but i think it only blows when i let off. and i havent drivin it much but it doesnt seem to drop as im givin er. i know my accordian hose is on its last leg but thats before the turbo. just wanna try and get the best boost i can on the stock system for now. know what i mean? OH, and i forgot to tell you that when i blow air or wd40 into the dump end of my bov when it's idling, the car stumbles and/or stalls.
