Had two overboost faults today reset with Bluetooth obd and torque app for Android
I have read people reading boost pressures of up to 3 bar but mine stops boosting at
1.5 bars according to the display on the torque App

Can any one confirm the standard unmapped boost pressures?

Thanks Jack

1.5 bar still a tad high. About 0.85 bar is typical norm.
Overboost sometimes symptomatic of a sticky turbo vanes.
For a boost curve map, check on an ECU remappers website.
