BM3 Stage 2

Just wondering how much boost psi I should be hitting on bm3 stage 2 I have a downpipe and chargepipe on the car, I did a log and it stays consistent around 15-16 psi boost pre throttle. Is this normal?

That is the approximate target for the map.

Flash tunes do not target boost PSI but rather target load which translates into different PSI depending on the condition.
I recommend you datalog and send it to PTF, they'll let you know if everything looks good.

Isn't the bm3 boost based tuning and MHD the load based tuning?

All flash tunes target load.

They are both load based tunes but the timing and boost tables between bm3 and MHD are slightly different. From what I've seen in the logs MHD tends to target higher boost based on load with less timing and bm3 boost table targets seem to be lower with more advanced timing.

Which make it difficult to figure out if you have a small boost leak or not lol. Does anyone know if there are load PID's to monitor/log to see if you're hitting the load targets?

I know you log the duty cycle PID to see how hard your turbo is working but from what I have seen from dozens of logs, is that the EWG has a pretty high duty cycle to begin with(80-90).
