Thumbs up boost/psi

heres one, i noticed this before

the car is running great, but i've noticed the boost will reach 0.9/1.0 on the boost gauge then drop to 0.6/0.7 and hold while im building up speed

know i know the car needs remapping and all. but the car was set to 1.1 bar.

this was also happening before the front mount, but excelerated a little quicker

cvould it be the boost gauge or the car just needs a map

it needs a remap.

you have massively changed the way the airflow into the engine by adding the front mount.

thats what i throught

the exstra air mixed up in the way the boost is would be lower

but i diden't think the psi level would change that much
