Assuming that stage 3 means that the pressure sensor has been 
upgraded, your dash boost gauge is now almost meaningless. Surely you 
expect that your maximum boost is actually above 1.8 bar, right? Best 
advice: install an analogue boost gauge. Quick, cheap and easy to 
do--except deciding on a spot to install the gauge. Mine's in the 
glove box.
