Does anybody know what Ford specs the boost pressure for this engine/turbo setup at?

Anyone? Turbo boost specification.

Full boost is supposed to be 42 PSI. A lot of trucks never reach that though.

Where does this spec come from?

I have never seen more than about 34 per my guage...towing heavy, up hill. Is this somehow related to driving habits, gear selection, when was the last regen etc?

Typically anywhere from 26-36 PSI depending on altitude and load. The gauge goes to 40 psi but thats kind of like a tachometer, sure it goes to 6,000 rpm (I think) but the redline is 4,000 rpm's.
