    got it to work.... after installing Torque Pro (full version)... my boost peaks at 23psi.... I've for APR R1 DV and Stage 1 tune.... does it seem a bit excessive?

      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?

        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.

        http://www.forgemotorsport.com/media/FMINTPOLO.pdf page 17 item 28

        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.

          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).

            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.
