I haven't measured the 2 liter turbo but would guess it runs at least 8 - 9 PSI over ambient pressure. Good fuel octane may allow it to go higher as it's always adjusting based on temperature and engine knock. An easy way to read boost is with OBD II readers that link to a smart phone and bring up MAP sensor data.

I believe the Cooper S runs around 8-9 psi and the Cooper goes a little higher at 13-15ish

Im using a code reader obd11 and torque pro app to read pressures! Getting 8 psi max but with temp not getting hot enough feels sluggish.

Should be approx 1 bar. Can anyone confirm this?

Cooper s is 8-11lbs.

I was running a quick test on my MCS with the JCW tuning kit the other day. I was on my way to a friends to re-install my NM module and thought I'd do a quick check without it. Going ~60mph in 6th gear I floored it until I hit ~90mph. My Scangauge II showed a max boost of 11PSI. A day later after driving a few miles with the NM module I tried the same test. Same time of day, ambient temp, and same stretch of road. This time the Scangauge II showed a max boost of 17PSI.

Sounds about right then a stock jcw should be doing 14-15psi

This sounds about right, I think I hit 18 the last time I was running and checked it.
