Durametric Log / Convert Boost Pressure to BARs

Hi,

I drove my car and log it with durametric.

However the value of "Boost pressure of sensor" isnīt in BARs.

How can I convert it to BARs?

The "Boost pressure control deviation" is the difference of pressure between the left and right Turbo? What is the acceptable limit?

Thanks,

What unit of measure is it?

I believe it's:

subtract 1000 then divide by 1000 and you'll get BAR.

14 psi is approximately 1 bar if that helps.

Are you talking about "Pressure ahead of thr. Plate press. Sensor?"

https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...ic-primer.html

Boost during WOT is not directly measured. You need to calculate the value based on ambient atmospheric pressure.

"Boost pressure of sensor" is an actual value, and it is displayed in milibars. Ambient pressure needs to be recorded as a constant. Under acceleration, the sensor reading needs to be corrected with the ambient pressure constant.

For example, 990 milibar at idle, means 990 milibar atmostpheric pressure. At WOT (6734 RPM), I record 2178.75 milibar.

2178.75 - 990 =1188.75 milibar = 1.18 BAR

On my Durametric, boost pressure of sensor is reported in mm Hg, not millibars. Updating bbywu's formula:

(Boost pressure of sensor - Boost pressure at idle)/(760 mm Hg/bar) = Actual boost in bar

My durametric software is the last version the boost pressure unit is hPa.

This is what I always use for conversion.
