If I'm going up a steep hill and suddenly spool the turbo to 27psi I would fully expect my tires (also indy 500s) to spin a bit, and he has a hybrid is20

Ok, I'm nuts, I don't see the turbo spooling to 27 psi at half throttle, in 4th.

27psi is what Diggs said so I'm going off that, personally I couldn't really read that log at all compared to an AP3 log.

but it does seem excessive for half throttle

"Hectopascal" sounds made up.

Edit: On that note, I'm going to start saying my car is pushing 1860 hectopascal of boost.

1hpa=1millibar
1000millibar=1bar
2850millibar=2.85bar
1bar=14.7psi
The PUT sensor is seeing 2.85bar/2850mbar/2850hpa. Subtract ambient (roughly 1bar/1000mbar/1000hpa according to the log) and that's what people typically state as "boost my car makes".
1.85*14.7=27psi

There. Lesson's over.

I'm a simple business grad that does bolt-on mods with his own fat fingers. I don't understand this.

Ok, that makes sense.

Found the problem.

That was me too, but I chose to blow stuff up for a living, so winner!
