14.7 is atmospheric pressure. Its relative to your location's altitude, so if you know it specifically, then use that, sea level is 14.7 psi though. This is where the term 1 atmosphere (atm), or 1 BAR came from.Originally Posted by IdreamofYenko

That's what I thought. Remember that from high school physics. Wanted to ask for confirmation though
Yessir! I was thinking about doing a write up on supercharger compressor mapping, but maybe I should do my school work... Hmmmm.
Life is full of tough decisions.
Just to aid in the turbo knowledge... here are Garrett's Turbo Tech articles. Veeeeeeeeeeery helpful for anyone that wants to learn about turbos and is starting with a limited knowledge. 2 years ago... I didn't know squat about turbos. I read these threads 1000 times, played with a busted turbo I got from a local, and then slapped my own turbo kit together on my car. The rest is history.
Read them until you understand them... then read them 5 more times.
