Default Boost Question??

I had taken some logs today and was wondering if someone can tell me if i'M reading this right. It looks like I am boosting 30PSI (2010mbar) at some of the points when I get on it. My boost gauge reads 17-18PSI steady. Can someone check the logs that I attached and tell me if I'm right or wrong. My car is a 2001 A4 QTM with APR Stg III. Thanks in advance.

You have to take into consideration what the ambient pressure is where you live/what altitude. Sea level is something like 14 psi, so youd subtract that from the reading.

Atmosphere pressure needs to be removed from the log readings that the map sensor shows. So this means removing about 800-1013mbar from the readings, you can find that number you want to subtract by looking at what it reads during idle, that number is always going to change with the conditions because the DA(altitude pressure) changes.
