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.
That did help. Thanks. Changing to a new phone I forgot to set the vehicle profile. Torque does use the MAF calculation method. In preparation of my next project, I did a few logs (3rd gear pull and 6th gear full fueling) this afternoon with my original vehicle profile set and now the numbers are back where they belong:
