Is this right???

Hey everyone yesterday i installed a NGR type S bov (which by the way is amazing) and when i got it all on and installed i took the car out for a drive. I have a manual boost controller and the car spiked to like 1.4 bar of boost. Needless to say i went in and adjusted the boost back down to .9 bar. It spikes to about 1.0 bar sometimes but i believe thats still fine boost for a t25 with a stock fuel system. Ok the question is it is pulling way harder now at the same boost levels. What can be some reasons for this. My guess is that the turbo was putting out 1.5 bar of boost before but only .9-1 bar was getting to the engine since thats what my gauge used to read. Since it was putting out more air it was hotter and less efficient? Does this sound right to anyone. Basically the car is pulling way harder with the same boost and i want to make sure that everything is still alright and im not gonna blow anything.

Mods thus far.

K and N filter with intake
NGR type S BOV
Turbo XS Dual Stage Boost Controller
Narrowband (came with the car)
Blitz Boost Gauge (Reads in BAR)


For the record this is for a 1995 Talon TSI AWD

Your old bov was probably leaking, causing you to run rich under boost. Now that you're getting all the air your ecu thinks you are, you're feeling a lot more power.

Ok so there is no way that im over boosting? Just wanting to make sure cause i dont feel like blowing my engine quite yet haha

1 bar is fine on a t-25.
