can someone explain bar when dealing with boost. i hear it all the time but never knew what it meant.
thanks!

 

its metric readin instead of psi

1.05 bar = 1 psi i think

 

Try 1 bar = 14.7 psi I think.

 

i thought it was 14.5. guess not.

 

Did I say 14.7? I meant 14.5

 

1 bar = 0.9869233 atmospheres
1 atmosphere = 14.69595 PSI (Corrected due to my error, thanks wrx ish)

I think the stock guage reads in megapascals so:
1 bar = 0.1 megapascals

They all are the same thing with differant measurement units.. Like 12 inches = 1 foot



For a good units converter go to

and pick
Convert (Version 4.02)

 

sorry you are wrong

you are right that 1 bar = 0.9869233 atmospheres
but 1 atm = 14.69595 psi
and 1 bar = 14.50377 psi


oh and a good convertor is http://www.onlineconversion.com

 

You are correct. 1 atm ~ 14.7 psi. 1 bar = not too drunk on Saturday night

 

haha
thanks guy's
