What happens after 1.5bar?

[Mihnea Cotet]

Yes, there is a maxMAF map in the chips, it's a 5 by 1 points map, thus 5
MAF values for 5 RPM points, 2-3-4-5-6k RPM. When the actual MAF value
exceeds the programmed value, then comes into play a second map that looks
about the same but has lower values, thus lower air flow, which equals to
the issue of not being able to have boost exceeding a certain level until
the leak is fixed, or the maxMAF values raised.

HTH,
