X-chip boost levels (more)
Just checking in with X-chip crowd, as I finally got my boost gauge in.
Full load, low RPM, high gear I see 18-19 lbs, then down to around 17, then down to 15 or so up in high RPM.
2nd or 3rd gear blast from 3K RPM, I see about 15 max.
Sound right? Car pulls pretty hard, loud whistling from turbos (with piggies and Borla and S-flo) but steady, does not sound dangerous, just audible.
Thanks all.

Sounds about right.
In 3rd gear I see 14-15 psi peak and then tapers to about 11-12 high in the RPM range. Spooling sound from turbos is very present and my exhaust howls at WOT,high RPM in 2nd gear.

Sir...please measure pressure in bar. =)
So you're saying your seeing 1.24 to 1.31 then down to 1.17 and down to 1.03 up high. That sounds pretty normal, but 2nd and 3rd gear should peak higher than 1.03. VAG block 115 and see what's up.

What boost level do you see at when approaching redline??? Mine goes down to like
11 lbs at about 6500 rpms. This is after I installed a Bi-Pipe...I can't remember if it used to be higher.
