Re: Boost Controller Setting (Ray)
it depends. Do you have your boost gauge and the controller reading from the same spot? If you have the boost gauge reading after the intercooler, and the controller before, then that would be the difference.

Re: Boost Controller Setting (VaporTrail)
Actually....
1 bar = 1.02 kg/cm^2 = 14.508 psi
1 kg/cm^2 = 14.223 psi
.6 kg/cm^2 = 8.5538 psi

Re: Boost Controller Setting (Ray)
you dont have to relearn the evc4 if the boost is that close... you can just adjust the trim level to get it exact... if you are .5 psi low though, I would just leave it a small margin of error because the boost will likely go over .6 when it first gets there... if you want a little more boost you can just turn it up more

Re: Boost Controller Setting (RTEK)
The boost meter on the evc4 matches with my autometer. My car just doesnt boost to the set amount. So sounds like I should just set my trim lower or higher?
Im running a Deltagate(P.O.S.) Wastegate but it works fine for me, no boost spikes or creeps.
By the way. Did I calculate my kg/cm to psi wrong???
