EBP, MAP, and BARO should read within .5psi of each other at KOEO (key on engine off)

No set value. It will go up and down as more/less demand is put on the turbo. In a manner of speaking, EBP is reading turbo drive pressure, which varies with vane position/engine demand.

Ebp reading would also be off a bit if you're running an aftermarket exhaust with no cat/muffler.

EBP has a correlation to VGT position and MAP. Have you verified the variable vanes in the turbo are not stuck?

The higher the VGT numbers, generally the higher the EBP in relation to the MAP.

I wish there was a setting on the scangauge that showed EBP as a ratio of MAP to EBP. That seems more useful under any combination of load/RPM/MPH.
