If its a UK Turbo running the standard TD04 turbo, you should not be getting 1.4bar - especially if it hasn't been remapped.

Standard you should be getting 1 bar, and if its been remapped maybe 1.2-1.3 bar.

Ah - 14psi is 0.97bar so yes you should be getting that assuming its standard.

I'm afraid I can't help you with that, but I would say lacking boost could be a number of things and is probably best left to a decent garage to sort out?

Do a search on here and you'll almost certainly find some suggestions.

No worries, but if you are producing that much power, you are probably running a bit more boost than standard.

Decatting naturally raises the boost a bit - this happened on my old MY95 WRX which had been fully decatted.
