Rounding off to 5 significant digits 1 bar is equal to 14.504 PSI. To 9 significant digits it's equal to 14.5037738.
Just heads up for guys comparing gauges to boost controller readings ..

1 is in BAR (boost controllers)
1 is in KPA (gauges)

KPA reads higher .. IE you'll see 1.3 bar on the boost controller and 1.4x100 KPa on the gauge ..
It's slightly off .. just go find the conversion website

Anyway .. I set both the boost controller and the gauge to read KPa and I still can't get them to sing the same song even though both are tapped from the same place

Ah, that explains everything! Mine reads in hkPa (blitz dtt 2). I just looked it up that 1 hkPa = 14.7psi. I've been under the assumption that that was bar (14.5psi for 1bar).

Since 1 PSI = .145 kpa, shouldn't h (hecto) kpa be 100 X .145 = 14.5 PSI?
