hitting roughly 0.65 - 0.70 bar in first gear, the rest of the gears

will hit 1.3bar easily

 

Am i missing something here ???? is this right or should the car

be hitting the same boost in all gears ?

 

using a blitz boost controller too by the way

 

cheers

Boost will increase in higher gears as the engine is under more load.

 

Some of the more expensive boost controllers (Blitz icolor, HKS EVC VI) can map the boost settings against speed, so you can maximise boost through each gear.

As Nic says, it's load (resistance) dependant.

 

How much pressure (boost) could you make in your gob when blowing out though a straw? Loads, right?

Now, how much pressure could you make when blowing though a bog roll tube?
