Is 1.2 bar the reading you see on the digital boost gauge on the
instrument cluster and is it the max that shows? The 1.2 bar is absolute
manifold pressure. If the car feels slack then go look at Scott Mockry's
website for vacuum and air pressure leaks. http://www.sjmautotechnik.com
is the address. There are a few air lines in the engine bay that need
looking at, but don't forgot the tiny little one sitting between the
injector fuel lines on the inlet manifold. A friend had a boost problem
and all the hoses seemed fine, until he found that one sitting there. On
my car it had a loose clamp, on his the hose was burst.

I think the reading should usually be 1.4 - 1.6 bar from the digital
gauge on these cars.
