Default 2001 996 Turbo Boost too low???

My friend has a 2001 totally stock 996 Turbo and the max pressure that he is showing on the on-board computer while accelerating hard is 0.7 bar. We watched some videos where same cars run around 1.1 bar. Any ideas? TIA

2001, 6 year old stock diverter valves? Good chance one of the diaphragms have failed. Check for a vacuum leak.

.7 Bar is normal, 1.1 bar the car has work...ECU or whatever, My TT never went over .7 bar when it was stock.......Now I get to see 1.1- 1.2.
