Ideally you want a gauge with say a max of 2 or 3 bar range as the difference between .8 bar and 1 bar boost could explain your problem.
Having said that I am at .5 bar at 110 kph on a flat road.
An egt gauge would also help greatly in this logic maze
In the absence of that maybe do a run on your motorway at night with a buddy driving behind you as then it will be easy to see if your a smoking at the 60 max that you getting - in which case fuel delivery isn't the problem
Also try and see if while sitting at this 60 max whether a couple of blips on the throttle doesn't cure it even for a couple of hundred meters at a time. Not sure what road in problem solving that might lead to though

I'll need to get the top off the injection pump and check as I think that's all it can be now. I'll blow through the fuel lines and make sure they're clear, after that there shouldn't be any problem or blockage right up to the filter so the injection pump is the last thing to check

I know, that's just what I had to hand but it's still given me an idea of what boost im getting and it looks decent enough. I've tried blipping the throttle, I've tried flooring it for a bit but still nothing. I don't know why it suddenly started working great then went back to crap unless the boost pin is seized and needs freed up, I'll need to get in about that and check it as it's the last thing I can think of now
