for ease of maths call it 15psi to 1 bar mate.
its actually 14.7psi at sea level. 1 bar is one atmospheric pressure

How can it peak at 1.5 bar and then HOLD 1.6 bar ?

Good power for the boost

well it sounds a little low for the spec,certainly too low to make a genuine 380bhp....i'd expect it to be nearer 2 bar for that..

With light blues (400s) you should be able to peak at about 2 bar and hold 1.7 - 1.8 bar.

What exhaust housing is on your T34 ?

Your car will not make 379bhp peaking at 1.5 and holding 1.3, sorry.
