[s-cars] Stock boost level

[Mark Rivera]

Good point.  I have a gauge that I *know* reads 1psi low.  I'll swap it in
and check again.

thanks.

Stock boost levels are around 17 psi, at least that's what I used to get
and what seems to be the general consensus.  But before you go spending
a lot of time chasing a small boost leak (or issue with waste gate, BPV,
or WGFV), the first order of business is to verify the instrumentation.
It's always possible that the gauge is off by a psi or two.  Swap it
with another gauge, or if you know someone that can test it.
