that is your formula

1 millibar = 0.0145037738 pounds per square inch

multiply your millibar by 0.0145037738 to get psi.

Try this

Mbar - 1013 divided by 1000 = Bar

Bar x 14.5 = psi

and there-in lies the problem...

spec. actual
1510 1000
1790 1120
1880 1260
1890 1600
1840 1870
1740 1770
1620 1620
990 1590

if you plug in the formula you had up there, we're looking at

21.90069844 14.5037738
25.9617551 16.24422666
27.26709474 18.27475499
27.41213248 23.20603808
26.68694379 27.12205701
25.23656641 25.67167963
23.49611356 23.49611356
14.35873606 23.06100034

as the PSI conversion...hmm...don't think i'm getting 27psi off an apr chip...see my dilemma with conversions?!?!?

on the other hand, i found another formula

(mBar-1013.23)/1000*14.50377

which makes the numbers more feasible, but it would mean i'm either having a boost leak or i'm just running very low boost- max outta all my runs with that conv. factor is 13.01psi....max requested 13.15....
