boost gauge-bar to psi?
I ordered a GReddy boost gauge that reads in bar and was wondering the exact conversion to psi. Thanks alot.

1 bar equals 14.7 bar

psi*

Actually, if you look carefully, it says "kg/cm²".
1 kg/cm² = 14.2psi. This is off a little versus 1 bar.  1 bar = 14.5psi. -Ted |
Conversion: 14.7psi = 1 BAR Formula Example: 0.7 BAR * 14.7 = 10.29psi
According to rx7.com........ They may be wrong though |
They are wrong.
1 bar = 14.5psi http://www.chromatography.co.uk/TECH...r/Pressure.htm http://users.aol.com/tspquinn/units.html http://www.igus.com/conv.htm This is just a short list of sites on Yahoo seaching for keywords "bar psi conversion". 1 atmosphere (atm) = 14.7psi. -Ted |
5 = 1.0 psi
10 = 1.9 psi 15 = 2.9 psi 20 = 3.9 psi 25 = 4.8 psi 30 = 5.8 psi 35 = 6.8 psi 40 = 7.7 psi That's gauge reading to psi or millimeters of mercury to psi. Or hash marks to psi, or..... |

Ok so 1 bar equals 14.5 psi, correct everyone?

That's it!

Thanks alot. Why do aftermarket gauges go by bar most of the time anyways?

The pressure units are somewhat arbitrary in terms of which one you use and get used to. I am sure that people that are more used to other units have the same impression about U.S. gauges that read in psi (that psi is a strange unit). People often buy gauges from other countries, so it is common to see units of bar or kg/cm^2.
