Not really worthwhile to go through the trouble to log it in HPT IMO. Just run some copper tubing to a pressure gauge and get a feel for boost VS: backpressure ratio.

It's not really that difficult if you want to do it (HPT Pro needed). You just need to add another (0-5 v) pressure sensor to the correspondent MVPI cell (in 2.24; 3.0 is probably different now).

I've actually used rw dyno tools instead, to follow the backpressure, if needed.
