molovin Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 Look at me trying to work out all the conversions first Km to Miles now Psi to BarRight fianlly had my Boost guage fitted read otu is in Psi thought standar boost should be running around the 10psi mark mine ehtier seems to be over boostign or the gauge is inaccurate.The gaug is wired to the manifold i belive and reads 18psi in fith gear foot flat to the floor and in all other gears reads a staedy 15psiWant to no what bar ratign that is pelase :-D tried googlign it but had no luck Quote
Kennedy Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 ClickClick on that and just change the number you want to convert Quote
molovin Posted March 11, 2009 Author Posted March 11, 2009 see it should only boost to 10psi as i thought. But it cant be over boosting double can it doesnt feel like its running 1.2bar Quote
ste91 Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 1 BAR is roughly 15 PSI or something like that. Quote
montanajr Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 What modifications does it have? Could have a FCD wired in there somewhere. Quote
molovin Posted March 11, 2009 Author Posted March 11, 2009 possibley not that im aware of.The car is basically standard standard top mount just got a ss exhaust i did hit fuel cut earlia on the motor way. Doesnt feel like 1bar atal tho Quote
Pav Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 My old autogauge boost gauge would over-read loads, especially when running about 1 bar, sometimes it would shoot to a reading of 20psi, which was wrong!If your gauge is a cheapo one, Id upgrade that first with a decent one (ie greddy, apexi, blitz) Quote
molovin Posted March 12, 2009 Author Posted March 12, 2009 The gauge is fine its a prosport one cost me £110 better had be good lolWorked it out just needed reconnecting. boost's to about 10psi until 5th gear Quote
Sparky Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 14.5 Psi - 1BarIts actually 14.7psi to a 1 bar My Defi reads just over 1 bar before it fuel cuts which obviously aint right.Would it be because its T'd into the dump valve vacuum line and not on its own? Quote
Sparky Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 I'm sure I was looking at my uni notes the other day and it said 14.70 :D Quote
molovin Posted March 14, 2009 Author Posted March 14, 2009 Nope the gauge isnt in with the dump valve. All sorted now tho Quote
mattgtt Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 Sparky.... you are fail....14.50377439 psi to 1 BarI work with pressurised equipment accross the world I know what the conversion rate is im an aircraft engineer and this is correct!! Quote
