2 questions about boost control!

My boost controller is scheduled for delivery tomorrow. I have a couple questions though, any response would be much appreciated!
1) What gear should I be in when setting my boost? I read somewhere you should set your boost in 3rd or 4th.

2) What is the maxium consistent boost that the stock EVO engine can withstand. I don't want to push it to high, and will probably keep it around stock, but would like to turn it up sometimes.

To answer both questions, I would set boost at or near 21 lbs of boost -- and you can do a few pulls in third gear to make sure you are not over-boosting.

awesome. The gas station right down the street sells 93 and that is all she has ever had!
