KPA to PSI

Can't seem to get the ms to switch from kpa to psi for tuning and logging. Running v3.

If your talking about boost level in the megalogviewer you can go to calculated fields, optional fields, Boost(psi). Than add it to your list on the left side bar.

Thanks, that was probably my next question,lol. Right now I'd be happy if I could get the fuel map (ve table 1) to display in psi/vac

Just to clarify, we tried setting it in the configurator and still no luck.

To convert pounds per square inch to kilopascals, multiply the PSI value by 6.894757293168361.
To convert kilopascals to pounds per square inch, multiply the kpa value by .14503773773020923.

If your trying to mess with your boost controler, look at what your map reads with the engine off, I'm at sea levle so i get a reading of 100, basicly start with that as 0 psi and add to that, for every 1 psi add 6.8950 to your kpa reading, so if you wanted to set it for 15 lbs it would be 203.4250 kpa.

Aslo of you are messing with the boost controller I would recommend using the duty cycle targets anyhow. It is easier to configure, 0 would be what ever the stock wastegate spring is set for, and 100 would be closed wastegate all the time, basicly infinite boost levles, or what the max psi the turbo is capible of putting out.

I'm familiar with the conversions, I would just rather have the maps displayed in psi for tuning purposes. Thanks for the input, I'm pretty much finished tuning anyhow.
