Might it be possible to extrapolate 4-cyl readings to a 6-cyl theoretical? Maybe not the turbochargers are too different.

I had an idea for the Pressure Control Valve-- devise a fine thread thumbscrew in the top of it that alters the position of the plunger. Might even be able to run it to the dash panel using a mechanical speedo cable.
