it maybe becoz the air temperature has dropped now so you should be seeing more boost. wouldn't realy rely on the standard boost gauge too much. get it checked by an tuner if your still not happy.

i have a second boost gauge in the car so i know its accurate when i drive for any length of time it will only boost up to half a bar and wont go past the half bar but that only happens when im outta town im puzzled to what this could be its really hacking me off
