Can anybody help me out about the boost on DashCmd?

Hello guys,
I recently purchased a race chip and have it installed.(default setting now) I'm trying to check the boost from dash command but I found the max data under SAE.MAP is 161kPa which is 23.3 psi. It's way higher than what others boost I saw in this forum.

I drove around and record two set of data.
Can anyone tell me if I'm reading the right data?
Thanks!

CALC.BOOST_PRESSURE psi is what you need.

As shown on the picture, the maximum is only 8.8 psi? And why are there negative values?
Thanks for your reply.

CALC.BOOST_PRESSURE psi is your boost pressure estimation pid. Part throttle will read negative as it is in vacuum. Now look at your high and low numbers. You peaked at 8.8psi because You only went 3900rpm and that limited you boost Spool. Go wot somewhere safe and let it go to redline and you log the boost increasing rapidly. Good luck. You have a killer ride and a killer power adder in RC !

Thanks so much for the explanation. I'll test it out and see what happens.
