Turbo boost pressure?

Hi all,
Having finally after a month got around to looking through the Fisco menu's, I went into the one that provides digital speedo (says mine is about 4mph out at 50) along with everything else it displays boost pressure.
What would you expect to see the boost pressure recording on a stock 2009 model 2.0TSi?
Cheers
Chris

this was with the catback exhaust and air filter only (nice pop at 35 lol)

hey Ryan, thanks for your reading :-)
After playing about this morning I managed to have a decent look at what the Fiscon says the boost pressure is in BAR.
With loud pedal "fully loud" it's recording:
1500-2000 rpm - 0.57 bar
2000-3000rpm - 0.52bar
3000-4500rpm - 0.48bar
4500-6500rpm - 0.32bar
oh well been there, looked at that, I guess I'll not look at that menu again now unless something feels odd and I want to see if its still reading the same lol

its showing about 2 psi off from my readings, (10psi is .68bar) so maybe it doesnt show true readings

it could have made a slight change as one cat was removed and i had a non resonated cat back when this vid was done, but i didnt have the boost guage when it was standard so i wouldnt know
