boost gauge
I own a evo IX. Everything on the car is stock including the three gauges it came with; battery voltage, oil pan temp.,andturbo boost.Can anyone tell me what the 1.5 on the boost gauge is equivelant to in psi? When I am at peak boost it is reading around 1.0, it never makes it to 1.5. I was told the stock boost is around 20psi, is this correct?

RE: boost gauge
1.0 = 14.7 PSI so you are running less boost for some reason
1.5 = 22 PSI
its metric system thats all all you need to do to figure out what the boost is. Take thenumber in bars and mutliply it by 14.7

RE: boost gauge
do you have or has anybody else every had a boost controller on it? my friend has an EVO VIII, he was running stock boost for a couple months then got a EBC, when he sold it and hooked everything back up he was only running between 11 and 14psi b/c aparently something was missing or messed up w/ his stock boost controller, he told me that he heard from somwhere that this is somewhat common but he's got a MBC now and runnin 21psi again.

RE: boost gauge
When I reach peak boost it will read right in between 1.0 and 1.5 so I guess my turbo is creating about 18.4 psi. I guess this is normal considering the spike is 19psi. Does a stock evo 8 and evo 9 create the same boost? Will an aftermarketBOVkeep my turbo's boost from tapering?
