Boost question

is 1.51 bar of boost high? fitted a new digital gauge and thats the peak boost it recorded, never saw it that high on mechanical gauge so hopefully its a setting on the new one thats out. Car is more or less standard apart from Ecutek remap

it could be psi!

im not sure i cant remember i must find out. i thought about 1.2. There is bar and psi settings on it, i must try it on psi and then convert that to bar and see what it says! 1.51 psi would be a tad on the sh*t side!
 
If its ECUtek'd then 1.5BAR sounds about right.

What was your old mechanical gauge reading?
 
dan when i had my mecanical gauge it was reading 20psi and reads the exact same on y digital...not sure what that is in bar...an as i can recall from us talking i think your were boosting the same

It was saying 1.3 bar, which is about 18 psi 1.5 is is closer to 22 psi. I must ask Bob what he mapped it for if he has a record of it. Maybe digital gauge is just more accurate
