Pascals (Pa) are a measure of pressure: 1 Pa =3D 1 Newton/m=B2

1 atmosphere =3D 101.325 kPa =3D 14.7 psi

or roughly speaking, multiply psi by 6.9

The mathematical relationship is correct...

But theres also a difference in the way the two are usually stated...

psi of boost is relative to atmospheric,

But kPa is usually absolute...

mathematically, 7 psi = 48 kPa

But 7psi of boost is usually represented as 149 kPa, because its 7psi
more than 14.7 psi atmospheric...

Understand?

Fletch.

P.S. this is also mentioned/explained in both the Link and TecII
manuals...
