Being new to "blown" P-cars I have a question pertaining to my (new to me) -01 996 Turbo. Car has a ECU flash, Agency Power DV's, race cats and a stainless steel exhaust. Boost gauge has never shown more than peak 1.1 bar but has also not kept it but rather constantly dropped to 0.9 or 1 bar. It was the same pre the install of the DV's as well. Is this normal or am I running a leak somewhere?

Yupp K16's. Just cam back from a drive and saw 1.2. and 1.3 but dropped back down to 0.9 and 1.0 after peaking. Is this drop from peak value normal?

when you say peak, I assume you mean spike...spikes are dependent on environmental conditions, fuel, hardware peculiarities (stuck wastegates. leaks and such) and measurement systems....

Well, it boosts 1 - 1.1 at almost any given time (mainly in 4th and 5th gear) for a few seconds only but then dropps down to 0.9 reving to the redline so I guess you could call it a spike. I reckon this is normal depending on factors such as gas and outside temperature.
