New owner 2011 135i in AZ

I picked up a 2011 135i last month as a daily driver. I've owned a couple other turbo cars and I am really pleased with the turbo response on the 135i. The car has the M package and feels well planet. My previous daily driver was a Honda S2000 and I don't think I will be missing it very much.

Not planning to do any modifications to the car but I did hook up an obd ii scanner to check the boost as there is no gauge. Its reporting back as 11.1 psi. I read stock is around 8. Is there any way for me to find out if the previous owner did any messing around with the tune on the car or could something else be going on?

Congrats.

I'm coming from an MX-5 myself, and it's nice having a car that handles similar with almost double the power.

The real difference is cruising on the highway, where there's plenty of reserve power even when going 70...
