boost pressure, as you call it, will not show on gauge,if you have one, while engine is at idle the turbo pressure does not boost but runs all the time according to the revs of engine

What is the role of the boost gauge in an internal combustion engine?
A boost gauge in an internal combustion engine has the role of a pressure gauge. The gauge indicates the manifold's air pressure or a turbocharger or supercharger's boost pressure.
What is error code P2262?
Trouble code P2262 means: Turbocharger (TC) boost pressure not detected
How do you lower the boost of a turbocharger?
Best way is to use a BOOST CONTROLLER
What is the total amount pressure being fed into your engine at sea level if your turbocharger had a boost of 8 psi?
The amount of pressure at sea level is 14.7 psi. If you add 8 psi of boost then the total amount of pressure would be 22.7 psi. (14.7 + 8 = 22.7)
What is more fuel efficient supercharger and turbocharger?
TurboCharger... Because you can control your RPM levels to prevent boost, while on a supercharger, boost is always present. On the other hand, at full boost Superchargers are more fuel efficient.
Will a turbocharger ruin your engine?
No, as long as the boost is kept to a safe limit.
Can a turbo on a eclipse blow the motor?
If boost pressure is too high or intercooling fails or if the turbocharger seizes causing excessive exhaust backpressure, then yes, very easily.
What is a blow off valve and how does it work?
The blow-off valve should not be confused with a waste-gate. The waste-gate is a device that by-passes the turbine wheel of the turbocharger, limiting the shaft-speed of the turbocharger. Therefore, limiting the boost (pressure) that the compressor generates and keeping the turbocharger from over-speeding. A blow-off valve is mounted in the intake plumbing between the turbocharger compressor and the throttle plate. The blow-off valve is a second safety measure against the turbocharger over-boosting and damaging the engine. The blow-off valve is more commonly used to keep the turbocharger spinning when the throttle plate is suddenly closed. When the turbocharger is generating maximum boost pressure at full throttle and then the throttle is suddenly closed, compressed air coming from the compressor slams against the throttle, generating extremely high pressures that travel backwards to the compressor stopping the compressor from spinning. When the throttle plate is again opened, the engine must spool the turbocharger shaft again. The effects of this high pressure can also be very damaging to the turbocharger.
What uses the flow of exhaust gasses out of the engine to pressurize the air entering the intake manifold?
a turbocharger uses exhaust gas to spin an impeller that boost atmospheric pressure and feeds it into engine
What causes a P0238 Turbocharger Boost Sensor A circuit high?
This means the the turbo is generating too much boost and is tripping out the engine management.
Is a turbocharger more powerful than a supercharger?
A turbocharger is not typically more powerful than a supercharger but is able to offer a boost at lower speeds. The turbocharger is powered by engine exhaust while the supercharger uses power from the drive belt.
What is the definition of a blow through carburetor?
A blow through carburetor is one that has been modified to operate under boost pressure, from either a turbocharger or certain blowers. This would include seals on the throttle blade shafts, and boost referencing the power valve and float bowl.
