Is this the correct way to approximate bhp when adding boost?
Its been a long time since I had to worry about atmospheres and bars, but I have a b16a1 that I am considering adding a sc to. I am tying to approximate bhp if I were to say run 8 pounds of boost. I think it would go as follows, but if the formula isnt correct please help me out.
160 bhp x bhp so 3632 = 14.7x then x = 247 bhp
--------- = ---------
14.7 psi 22.7 psi
Like I said its been a really long time since I have had to do something like this, so if this formula is not correct please help me out.
Thanks
