		This has most likely been mentioned before, but my Haynes manual states: 
 
"A pressure-operated switch operates a warning light on the instrument panel in the event of excessive boost pressure developing".  
 
I wonder how high the boost has to be. I would name it my "fun light'.

		They probably mean the STOP light to be fair, although I can't see boost setting that off...

		It's not the page, its the section. 
It's 4D, the chapter 17 labelled "Turbocharger" paragraph 4 does say it   . It's certainly in the XUD section.

		I don't understand the fascination abound here. The warning lights are detailed in the owner's manual. I've known about the overboost light for ages now.

		My copy is a 2006 publication, and has ABCDEFGH 3 written near the printing info.  
Where it says 4.D.16, that is the page reference. If you look in the text below you will see more numbers (Which go up to 22: Exhaust system). The paragraph in question is in section 17   
Edit: And it's definitely in the XUD section
