This has been happening for the last week. While my aftermarket boost gauge is showing around 10-12 PSI of boost while on my datalog, it's showing only 6-7.4 PSI. I have a feeling this is a boost leak, am I right? Otherwise what else could cause this? Datalog showing the issue is attached below for anyone to check out.

From Ecmlink website:

BoostEst
BoostEst estimates “boost” from airflow per rev. On a properly configured car, this value should match measured manifold pressure pretty closely at wide open throttle around 5500-6500 RPM. Outside this range, BoostEst is expected to fall off from measured. The BoostEst calculation is not calibrated to read accurately at any other engine speed (RPM).

That said, BoostEst is still VERY useful. It can be used to catch gross errors in configuration or it can be used to fine tune a setup that's running pretty well already.

But, you have to configure BoostEst for your situation. To do that, start a new data stream (F11 or ECU → Start stream) then just stop it (F11 again or hit the stop button in the toolbar). That should bring up the datalog tab for you. Add BoostEst to the displayed values using the Display Values dialog (F9 or Edit → Display values).

Once BoostEst is in the graph legend, double click it or right click on it and select BoostEst → BoostEst preferences. Enter your engine displacement (2.0L is the normal, stock value for our DSM motors) and your altitude then hit OK.
