I think 0.6 bar so 8-9 psi.
I don't know which turbo is standard on that car but a 16T is using a 218/60 wastegate actuator which should do 0.6 bar.
If it's a 15G, which I doubt, it uses a 150/40 wastegate actuator and I guess it is running 0.4 bar of boost. (~6 psi)

I think, if you look in the manual, it says the stock PSI is 8.7
Which is 0.6 bar http://********************/smile/emsmilep.gif

This is with the wastegate actuator adjusted with a actuator line feed pressure of 15 kpa?

I've heard from 10~11 psi? Not too sure, when I had my gauges I was already using IPD ECU then.
According to shop manual and literature (unofficial) that I have here, 11.3psi (0.78 bar) is the stock T5 engine boost.

OK, so the ECU takes over.

If I disable my BC the boost is regulated straight from the compressor to the actuator and is 0.7 bar.
This is with the 300/70 wastegate actuator.
