Should be around 7 lbs for the M235i, not sure what the N20 engine is pushing.

Yes, the six cylinder twin scrolls are low PSI. I know it sounds low given my WRX was 12.5 PSI stock and boosted to 21 lbs at Stage 2+.

I tested gears #2, #3, #4 and #5 and all of them got up to 11.3 PSI. Gear #1 only did 9.X.
Also tested Comfort, Sport and Sport+ and all reached the same boost levels.

I see you use the JB4 stage 2 hardware for tuning ? Why dont you use the JB4 app for android,iOS,mac or win ? Sorry im confused ? Logging with the JB4 you can log DME and actual PSI and target boost settings ... pretty straight forward.
