Default Boost Question.

I am going for the drag kit here soon when my funds are complete!! From what ive heard Drag makes full boost at around 4000 RPM's. Now say im cruising down the highway at 80 mph (4000rpms) like i usually do and sporting the drag kit, would i be under full boost? From what ive read it wouldnt be able to handle full boost for more than 15 seconds at WOT, but im just curious if this will create the effect of full boost while im just cruising....thanks in advance.

you wont creat boost when you crusing at 80 at 4000rpm. You will have to hit the throttle and go into positive vaccume range. when crusiing as constant speed you are close to a 0 vacuum

Your motor can handle full boost for more than 15 seconds if fuel and timing are in check and you stay at a safe, constant EGT.
