1bar = 5 psi.

Turn up the boost. You'll be fine.

Or you can try and search on google instead of being a lazy ass.

Who wouldn't recognize sarcasm even if it slapped him in the face. Way to feed him the silver spoon.

ahahah, sorry, i guess i have a soft spot for noobs. i was a noob once and no one helped me. and im not that good with sarcasm, its hard to tell sarcasm from seriousness when you're typing. anywho 14.7 is correct=1bar and .5bar is half that...so if im running 1.1bar on my setup...whats that equal to?

komedy · 05-04-2006, 03:11 PM

thank you again guys. but i know 1 bar is not 5psi. lol

seanc · 05-04-2006, 03:50 PM

actually 1 bar = 14.5037626 PSI. and at sea level at 25*C atmospheric pressure is 1.01325 or 14.696 psi.
