Hya,

Thanks alot, just expected a little more as my mates sti boost to 1.1 but it is a version 5 so probably the reason.

Thanks Mark

0.8 bar sounds very low as that is what my wrx produces ,i'm sure it should be about 1bar or more

13.64 psi is not 1.1 bar you have miss calculated your figures

13.64psi is actually 0.94 bar

14.5 psi is 1.0 bar

15.9 psi is 1.1 bar

early wrx was 0.8 bar 11.8 psi not sure what sti ver 3 should be .

use this link to change units psi/bar
