The factory boost sensor can only read 2550 mbar (minus approx 1 bar of ambient pressure). This is 1.55 bar of actual boost.....so even if the gauge shows 1.6 it can only actually read 1.55 and nothing more.

That's so weird though. Mine NEVER showed above 1.5bar even when I was running 26-27psi.

Now mine says .8 at WOT... I run stock boost I swear!
