TT Boost vs. X-50 Boost

What number do your X-50's turn for boost? I am turning a 0.9 bar pretty consistently on my stock 02 TT. Just comparing differences in the two setups. Thanks!

I saw .6-.7 bar on stock turbo and consistent .9 on my Turbo S. I added an airfilter and Cargraphic exhaust and consistently saw .1 bar higher

my stock X-50 would hit .8 all the time and periodically hit .9. With exhaust, ECU upgrade, and fancy wheels, I now hit 1.1 consistently and can bounce up to 1.2 with cool air and low elevation

Glad you like it!
Last year I had the pleasure of sustaining 319 km/h (indicated) for quite some time on my way from Sweden to Switzerland through Germany. 6th gear, flat out. Interesting...
