TST boost

Yes the TST reads boost from MAP/ECM. It is limited to the MAP electronics and in my instructions it states it will not read boost over 40psi.
BTW I can verify it will not read accurate boost over 40psi even if you are producing 55psi.

Yep the r49 will only read 40-42 psi. The boost elbow just keeps the wastegate closed longer so you get some higher boost numbers. I ran my stock turbo for a year with a TST mp8 but I didnt put in the boost elbow. I could see 35psi even with the wastegate opening at 21 psi. I bet if i would have put on the elbow my little stocker would have died along time ago.
