1.0 bar = 14.7 psi

so 0.83 bar would equal 0.83 x 14.7 = 12.201 psi

14.7psi or 14.5psi= 1bar? I have heard so many different answers. I go by 14.5 I've seen this more often on conversion charts.

edit:typo

1 bar = 14.503psi
14.223psi = 1 kg/cm^2

Put it this way.. Before I got rid of my S-AFC, I used to push 1.1 bar of boost, and my S-AFC would tell me 0.72kg/cm2 - the S-AFC gets its values from the MAP sensor, and I guess the stock MAP sensor wasn't fine tuned for boost or something why are you using a S-AFC/V-AFC anyway? Where's your standalone ECU??

14.7 is atmospheric pressure, NOT BAR or kg/cm^2.

1.0 kg/cm^2 is 14.2 psi, so you are hitting about 11.79 psi.
