The IA stage iii mod doesn't fool the PT.  Ned actually _changes_ the PT to
a 2.5 bar unit.  The output of the new PT, however, is on the same scale (i
believe 0 to 5 volts).  The new tables can respond to the correct pressure,
but Ned doesn't (can't?) change the driver circuitry for the digital boost
gauge display (where is it, anyway? ECU? instrument cluster?), so the gauge
still only reads to 1.8 which equates to 2.25 bar abs.
