You can trace it in the logs though, just have to look for it, i.e:
The key thing I now need to determine is whether these readings are absolute or normal pressure.
Code:
2360 45.1 990 1070
2480 66.9 1020 1090
2720 74.4 1000 1200
2960 72.9 990 1250
3200 94 1220 1270
3440 90.2 1180 1340
3800 133.8 2290 1600
4440 180.5 2230 2260
5000 167.7 2030 2040The key thing I now need to determine is whether these readings are absolute or normal pressure.

OK- I've plotted these results onto graphs and it seems that these values must be recorded with normal atmospheric pressure included at 14.696 PSI
The first graph shows the raw values logged by block 115 in PSI, the second is offset by 14.696 PSI to show actual boost provided by the turbo
Legend
Red = Requested boost
Green = Actual boost
From these results it looks as though everything is pretty much spot on, to me at least?
I think I may therefore need to take a look at the way in which my boost gauge is plumbed in as I'm only ever seeing 17PSI max and normal driving off boost it sits at -10. I've sleeved the provided nylon vac line into some 4mm silicone hose which then sits on the green nipple (also using a no-buzz t piece) but I've found http://www.scoobymods.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=210 which suggests another way of setting this up.
Anyone else had any trouble with Autometer mechanical gauges?
