I just installed my PLX ODBII guages this weekend (no pics yet). And like anyone with a brand new toy, I'm still playing with the settings, configs, and displays, etc. Ton of stuff to tinker with.

So, since I don't have a real boost gauge yet, I've been watching the MAP values. I like the way you can see the real-time graph. Pretty cool.

Anyway, my peak yesterday was 59. Of course, this is relative to the air temp conditions and my mods, I guess.

But just wondering what values everybody else is getting.

 

Hey Arnel, I didn't know you have a Mini. It's apudapus from TT.net. Sorry, I haven't hooked up my OBDII monitor yet to see.

 

Hey dude, small world. :-) Yeah, I've been a huge MINI fan since 2003. Had a 2003 non-S which I sold in 2006. And I picked up a turbo S last year and just slapped on some JCW mods a couple of weeks ago. GO MINI!

And of course, the Z32 is still quietly sleeping in the garage. :-)

 

ok gotcha, was wondering what units it was reading...

 

Yes, the PLX ODBII gauge was showing me a peak of 59 inHG (not Kpa). And then it was spitting out a barometric pressure of about 29 inHG.

So here's my math: 59 - 29 = 30 --> 14.7 psi (http://www.digitaldutch.com/unitconverter/pressure.htm)

Folks, am I doing this right?
