Get a calibrated boost gauge and check what psi your running. Disconnect the APC and drive the car you should be on base boost and notice the lack of power, check your boost with the APC disconnected, should be 5-6 psi.

Where does one find calibrated boost gauges...? They have gas/vapour pressure gauges in RS (£70-90)but I am sure they can be bought elsewhere cheaper...no?

Ooh, I quite like those! Do you mount them on the top of the dash?

Top of the dash in a pod or you can get a-pillar pods which look quite smart.
