Title: Boost and logging
Post by: Ant1981 on 24 November 2011, 17:39

What's the typical boost of a stage 1 AUM with KO3s?

I have a log from vag com that a mate did on his laptop showing at its highest, Spec boost of 2290 mBar with actual boost being 2260 mBar. Is it really that high?

No nothing. I am wondering if Vag Com is reading that boost as a level above atmospheric pressure?

Depending on the map it should peak at around 17psi :undecided:

It's including atmos press :-)

Around  1000 mB

18.26psi roughly  :wink:

Awesome, thanks. Next time we do logging, I'll check with the weather so that I know what the QNH (pressure) is so that I have an accurate figure to deduct. But it's pleasing anyway to see there's little difference between requested and recieved boost.
