More useful this way:

# psi on the gauge x 0.0689 bar/psi = X

X is your boost in bars

Yup I graduated from high school Algi-BRA (but not English)

For future reference, you can use Google to do the translation for you. Go to Google's site and type this:

6 psi in bar

Hit search and boom:

6 pounds per square inch = 0.413685438 bar

Is that not the ----, or what!?

You can even do something like:

100kilowatts in hp

And get:

100 kiloWatts = 134.102209 hp
