Sorry to ask a repeated question but what boost should the car be.(tried search but down) MY97 Uk spec. Blitz filter, forge vta, magnex cat back. I have just fitted a blitz dual Turbo Timer and it has a boost gauge which shows peak etc. The peak is 1.09 bar and after reading the posts for the past 30 days I'm not sure if I've connected something wrongly or what if anything is wrong. Does it matter which pipe you tee off from the throttle body. By my calculations 1.09 bars is 15.8 psi, sounds high to me. The previous peaks were 1.03 ish all wot in 5th. No dawes etc fitted although I do have one when I get an AFR. Hope someone can shed some light, 10000w spotlight would be about right.

Cheers

Marc

Sounds a bit on the peaky side. But if it drives smoothly then fine.
