BOOST IS GOOD!

Hello all....I just got back from tuning my APC box ("new" APC from junkyard) and testing boost pressures. I am running comfortably at 15 PSI with the APC system still engaged and protecting my engine. HOLY Sh%$! what a difference from my factory Red box! I was wondering what kind of pressures you are running. What is considered tame/lame/or fierce for these engines?
Essentially all I have done was set base boost at 5 psi...might go to 6.5
Set timing to 20 BTDC.
Tweaked my APC with resistors and adjusted the pots to suit.
Nothing else............the results are dramatic!
SO what are you running boost wise and maybe what do you think are the next steps for better spool up? Thanks for your help in advance.
