The max turbo pressure before the standard ecu will cut out is 13 psi or 0.9 bar for you continent boys.
This can be set higher if the boost pressure valve is bypassed (not disconnected - it must still be electronically connected to the ecu i.e. leave it plugged in!)

Explains all mate, dont want to be rewriting things several times.
If you want to bypass it you need an MBC from DBSVolvo he'll explain all if you contact him either on the forum or via email.
