Porsche 997.2 boost pressure
Hello
I have a 2018 991.2 911 standard carerra. I've just finished running it in past the 3000km mark as recommended by the manual. I took it out today and decided to open it up for the first time. I looked at the boost gauge and it did not reach over 2 or 3 psi no matter what I did? I tried WOT until it relined upto about 120km/h in normal, sports and sports plus modes.
Is this the normal level of boost pressure you'd expect to see? Or is there something wrong with the car?

If you've been babying the car for break in, it will adapt to that driving style. Research how to reset the DME (a simple battery disconnect for 10 minutes might do it) and then try the WOT test again. Selecting sport mode or sport plus might change the boost pressure thresholds too.
