I am calling to both users of REV and REV2 software and users of classic boost gauge.
I use a Kiwi WiFi and REV2 setup with my iPhone 3GS to monitor engine vitals, started to use the setup a few days ago. Everything works fine and I love it, but though I can record a run and see the values on a graph aftertwards, I cant see a precise reading at a certain point on the graph, I have to read on a scale that gives me a good but approximate reading.
In my case, on a 1st to 5th gear hard acceleration, it seems like my maximum turbo boost is just above 11 PSI, probably 11.1 to 11.3. Does this seem like a normal value? I read in quite a few other posts some people saying stock boost is more around 13.5 PSI. So just to know if something is wrong on my side I'd like to know what others get.
My car setup: 08 MCS, Alta CAI, boost tubes, Alta stealth catback.
It's not low, its right on...especially if you have an 08.
It seems that number might not be an overboost number though...it will be a few pounds higher with overboost.
Boost on these cars are all over the place, depending which version of software you are running.

A leak would have to be after the turbo to cause a boost leak, right? Because all I have changed is the filter (Alta CAI) and turbo inlet hose, everything else is OEM and untouched...
