Boost Pressure for 1998 V70 T-5M

According to data at alldatadiy.com the max boost for a
B5234T3 engine (that is what my 98 T5M has) is 11.2 to 12.7
lbs at 5100 RPM. (The B5234T2 is listed about 1 lb lower -- I'm
not sure of the difference). The numbers are at sea level and
temperature of 68 degrees (F).

Since it is elecronically controlled I suppose the system can dial
it back if it is hot, pinging, etc. I'd say your 10 lb reading
sounds about right.

Do the boost gauges come with information on how accurate they are
or a calibration sheet (just curious)?
