What should they be reading?

the first one is boost and accelerating hard its hitting 1.3 bar, the second it temp and reading just over 70 an the third is pressure, I don’t know if it water or oil but is reading 10 witch is the top.

Boost seems right at peak, oil temp usually higher at about 90+ and oil pressure around 6~8 bar.

Going on your username, I assume you drive a P1.

In standard form boost should hit 1.1 bar and tail off to around 0.95. As it's cold out at the moment you will often hit higher boost.
Oil temp seems low, car needs to be driven quite sometime for this to rise.
Oil pressure can change depending on how hot / cold the oil is.

Yes it is on a P1. Oil pressure goes strait to number 10 as soon as the engine is started, I did think the temp was also a bit low. Will get it checked out tomorrow.
