I’m definitely not an expert but stock ecu boost specified value is 1700mbar which you are getting. A tuned one would be around 2300.

The map sensor reading includes atmospheric pressure, so deduct 1000mbar to get the actual boost pressure. GTI runs about a bar of boost iirc, and ED30 runs 0.9 bar.
