We run 13 psi constantly with it. At night and on the last run we might turn it up to 14...but thats about it until we get the head bolts installed. as for normal driving, the car is my wife's grocery getter. The turbo doesn't really engage in the city unless you want it to. Still maintain 23 mpg in the city with it, but when she spools, you know, it drops (of course)...... and during the summer we run 20's on it, so the accerlation is lagged out a bit. But a turbo on this 3800 is beautiful.
