Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

its estimated from the MAF and something else, I don't think its excessive, but is a little higher than what you might see from a sensor / meter.
Its not including ambient is it (sitting at 1 bar, 14psi) when idling is it?Comment

I just looked at the install PDF for the Forge FMIC they call it a MAP sensor in there. Manifold Absolute Pressure, VW call them thrust sensors in ETKA.

EDIT, 23 PSI as peak isn't silly, could be overboosting a touch but I don't see it blowing up. You would need to look at requested and actual boost at the same time for a proper comparison.Last edited by h100vw; 25-08-2012, 05:23 PM.Comment

Not claiming to be an expert here, but I believe its different. Having done a little logging earlier, I remember it used the MAF readings, not the MAP sensor. Again, not 100%.
Some interesting info in the wiki: MAP sensor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I had thought the MAP sensor was used for fueling, protection and N75 regulation, but I can't be assed working out where I got that from or how accurate it is (reading on places like Vortex can be blind leading the blind).Comment

If you go for a bluetooth dongle you should probably get one of these:

Scroll down a bit for an image, it reads ECU block values just like VCDS. jazd has one working with Torque on Android, he's making a label file for it. According to him a few posts down, the adapter is wbh-BT4 $70 or so from Germany.TR 08 Golf GT TDI, Custom Code Phase 1, Milltek Exhaust, Whiteline RSB + ALK, APR Carbonio IntakeComment
