    850 boost

    I'm sure I've seen this question asked before but can't find it. Where is the boost needle supposed to go to on standard boost. The 850 T5 I've just got feels very rapid compared to my 2 previous t5s so curious if it may have been mapped.

    Where abouts would a mapped car be on the needle? I know it'd vary per map as such..

    its 9.6 psi, standard and is exactly halfway into the white, a mapped car will be at the end of the white gauge
