850: T5 MTE Remap boost?

[saturnuranus]

Wotcha chaps! I was just wondering if someone with an 850 T5 with a MTE software upgrade could confirm what sort of max boost I should be making. I stuck the car on a dyno the other day which has produced some rather odd looking graphs. I was told the end of the stock boost gauge represents 14.7psi but I imagine they're pretty innaccurate. For what it's worth i get about 5/6ths into the white area.

I am going to fit a proper gauge once I can find somewhere that stocks the correct fittings for the gauges I have available at which point I'll know better where I'm at. The car drives just fine and up until yesterday I didn't think there was an issue at all, but I've now got that itch suggesting I'm not quite getting the best from her

Well matey i don't know my figures,but when it's iddling the boost is at -0.8 bar and at full throttle it's at 1.3-1.4 bar(the needle goes a bit of the scale)

Maybe you have vacuumleaks?

Hope this helps,
