I thought that it will hold boost 16.5 psi. So its only when you accelerate?

No. You should be hitting about 19.5 peak boost, maybe higher, but you will be getting boost taper down to about 17 psi under full throttle acceleration.

so its normal that when you're not WOT it should just be below boost, at 0.8 below boost?

wide open throttle you should peak at 1.5 bar (21 PSI), it should then drop to approximately 1.0 bar (14PSI). if you are not wide open throttle then i cant tell you because there is so much room, but yes you will not be boosting that high.

if you are barely cruising...just very lightly holding down peddle to maintain speed, you should be below 0. :wink:

You will see vacuum when you are just cruising or let off the throttle.

0 + is boost 0 - vaccum!

so if you floor it then you sould be boosting, and when you let go gas you should go under 0!

So with my Profec B at full throttle it should stay around 20psi on high?

to your settings! if you set at 20 it should hit 20
