Rusted pipe got nothing to do with pressure but more to do with flow

Ya OK.
The syabas guy told me the same thing too.
I hope if I ON 2 kitchen tap the water flow still up to 80% speed, rather than now like 50% / 50%

Install after meter?

He didnt install pump at meter, the pressure is direct from syabas

My Hse in Seri Kembangan achieved 2.9bars from Syabas piping

What is the idea or correct pressure?

Too high will burst the pipe and waste water.

I think within 3-4 is OK for a direct pipe from meter.

my plumber also say have 3 bar enough.

Condo i think 4-5 bar.

Generally Condo is 4~5 bar that explain why 18 storey condo level 1 ~4 and 10~14 will face water pipe leakage in in their units.

Use pressure control valve if pressure too high.

Good for ground floor, when up the roof for solar water heater it gets down to 1.5 bar to 2 bar, not ideal for rain shower. Still need a pump if you really want to enjoy shower. Worst when someone open another tap at ground floor when you shower.

Yes you are right

Agreed with you.

What is Syabas Water Pressure Std for 2-Sty House
my house showing 21psi
