Really Gaz, I've just fitted a Boost Gauge (Auto Gauge one) and at
Idle it sits at about - 19,20 psi... In Sport, Full chat, Foot to the floor...Peaks at 12-13ish psi. As far as i know, my car is Standard.....?? The Gauge was only cheapish, so it could be that, We'll have a looky next time we meet. Cheers, Dicky. |

To get -19.20 psi ain't possible, -14.5 is about the theoretical limit and you'ld be unlikely to see that in practice. Assuming the gauge sits at zero with nothing running, I'd try scaling your readings by a factor of about 13/19 which give about 8 psi boost.......
