To do this you need to edit the vehicle profile.

And at least on the version of Torque I'm using "boost pressure" is reporting "gauge pressure", so it's not including the normal ~14.7 psi from atmosphere.

Hope that helps. 50psi would be deeply sub optimum if it's real.
TDI, now that you have the analog gauge, what VE value you found to be optimal for the Torque to line up with the analog readings?

Also, my understanding, that in torque there is no need to put in the Boost Adjustment unless one lives at a higher altitude.

Thanks.
