psi on afc??
 
how can i monitor my boost on my afc? i know it's in karman or some ---- like that, but is there a way to convert it to psi? i have 0 dolla for a boost guage and i'm ready to do my install, if there is no way to convert these units, can someone tell me what there afc reads at 9lbs. PLEASE

DSMs are in Karman. Hondas will show mm/Hg...pressure/vaccum. Karman is frequency. Find a way to convert mm/Hg to psi and you'll be set. You using 450cc's? otherwise i dunno how you're gonna ever see positive pressure. Late

of course i'm using 450's, well i don't know if there is an equation to convert mm/Hg into psi., so if anyone is running 8-9psi., just tell me what your afc reads for pressure and i'll be set.

It reads boost but I think it reads it in bar. It's under the moniter menu as pressure. I think like 11.5psi is equal to 1bar.

so like 2/3 of 1 bar would be around 8lbs.????

1 Bar = 14,7 psi (at sea level) although some will tell you it's 14.5..either way its insignificant for us...there's so much slop already going on on a HMT. late

No, 1 bar is equal to 7 pounds.
