0.9 bar or thereabouts, so either the boost gauge is hopelessly inaccurate, the car isn't standard at all, or it has severe overboost and is in danger of sh*tt*ng itself.

The other possibility is that your mate can't read the gauge properly and is actually seeing 13 or 14 psi - which might sound dull but someone on here has done exactly the same in the past, so it's possible.

LOL 1.3 OR 1.4 BAR ON A STOCK CAR WITH OUT A REMAP? that is way toooo much boost for a stock car mate and im sure 100% thats nt runing that much boost on a wrx lol... the car would be cutting out because of the overboost if he was runing that much....
it probly is in psi or a faulty boost gauge
