I think it is about 0.9/1.0 bar and i think there is 14 psi to a bar so sounds about right, i'm sure someone will correct me if i'm wrong

there's a fuel cut at about 17 or 18 psi (i don't remember).

What other mods do you have? and which boost controller do you plan to use?

As RB5 says, fuel cut is around 18 so you haven't got a huge amount of room to work. Either way, fit a KnockLink before you start upping the boost so you can be certain your increase is a safe one.
