Default Bar to PSI conversion

I know the conversion rate is like 14.5:1 but I am having a little trouble with the math. If I have -425 bar how much inches of Vacuum would that be?

Was never great with math!

I believe it's not -425 BAR, but maybe -425 mmhg.
According to this site http://www.aquaticam.com/presschart.html ,
-425 mmhg is about 8.19 psi. That doesn't seem right, though...

And 1 BAR is equivalent to 14.5 psi.
14.7 psi is atmospheric pressure.

That is what I get at idle on my Apex AVC-R so I was trying to convert it to Inches of Vacuum. Just curious how the engine is sealed, but something seems wrong here, I will recheck tomorrow
