So has anyone hooked up a boost gauge yet? Or is there a screen somewhere in the infotainment to show boost pressure? Or any other perameters?

Thanks for the reply. So is it still controlled via the wastegate and tcv? I'm in a 2004 v70R now and actually carry a spare tcv in the glove box because they are used up quicker when running the boost I do (20lbs). Also is there any place specific I should T into to run a boost gauge.

Had a boost gauge hooked up in my 2012 S60RD and I hit the as advertised 14.7psi that Polestar claims, but that was in first gear, 2-6 gears would hit 18psi at full WOT regardless if it was in Sport or just Drive.
