What does the boost read in other levels?

I've found that databus reading/calculating boost devices tend to be quite optimistic. The Edge never did add any boost unless they changes something. This is why they tend to be smoky and lazy starting out.

I would suggest that you verify with a mechanical boost gauge. Again I distrust the databus sampling/calculating units.
