Unhappy Lambda Fault!

I recently bought a RX-7 -92 (FD) and now I have got the lambdanumbers from the regulary Car-inspection.
And at 2000 rpm without load it was 1.5. It sould be 1.0-1.1.

One other thing I wonder about is my boost.
I tested in third gear. When the first turbo started i got a boostpeak to 12 psi and then a fast drop to 9psi, a slightly drop at 4000-4500rpm and then a 9psi again to 7000rpm. is this normal?

I really appriciate help.

I now got a autometer lambda-meter and the meter shows first red light or nothing at no load, and goes to 2 fron maximum on full throttle. Is this normal?
