    You need to be logging PID51 and PID11.. The simple way is [PID.11PSI]-[PID.51.PSI]

    I use the following I modified from Arthur:

    ([PID.11.PSI]-[PID.51.PSI])*(([PID.11.PSI]<[PID.51.PSI])+1+(([PID.11.PSI]<[PID.51.PSI])*.04))

    ok i have found everything but when i made the pid for the baro pressure and put the formula in and then try to scan the car it say unsuported parometer and if i put [PID.11.PSI]-[PID.51.PSI] it says my boost is unsuported i can take out -[PID.51.PSI] and my boost works its just not right so what am i doing wrong on the baro pressure i have tried a lot of different things and formulas so im sure its something small thanks for all your help can you put on here excatly what you have on your pid for the baro (name, abbreviation, ect.) or tell me why it is saying unsuported par. thanks again!!

    Sounds like the Baro is not support by your car.

    Just make your custom PID based on the MAP and subtract the ambient baro in your location... you can see your ambient by looking at the MAP with the key on, engine off with your scanning on.

    Yes it will not auto compensate as you are using a fixed number but it doesn't change that much if you are staying in the same general location/altitude and on a particular day if you need too just adjust the fixed baro number before you take your data.

    If you are going to do that you can find out what your Baro is at in your location usually from the weather channel.
