Boost Question

if im boosting 1.8 mmhg from my apexi avcr... what bar of boost im running of?? thanx

Google searches may help further, or break out the calculator:

1.8mmhg (actuall x100 on the scale, right?) = 180mmhg

760mmhg = 14.7 psi. (700mmhg on the scale is about 14psi)

52mmhg = 1 psi

180/52 goes 3.46 times. 3.46x 1psi = 3.46psi?

Well, probably totally wrong... but i've been awake for 24 hours now, so I suggest you do that on a calculator and double-check it. ;o)

The calcs are near perfect.... but that sounds very strange? Sure its only 1.8?? mmhg??

[andy95'R33GTR]

i think its over 999mmhg...that is 1800mmhg...????

How'd you get a number like '1.8 mmhg' from your avc-r?

My Avc-r Reads in BAR.

if that is what i'm guessing 1.8bar(26psi).. thats alot of boost!

what turbo & mods you got?

[andy95'R33GTR]

i don't know what turbo's i have =(

[Anakha]

I take it you just bought your car? You have a powerFC or something?

I'd say probably go to a workshop or tuner and get them to have a look. I agree with shortie with the AVCR reading in BAR, that sounds more correct. And if that right and you only got stock turboes you may need to tone it down a little.

You have any local mates who can have a look at your car and tell you a bit more bout it? May be a good idea

[andy95'R33GTR]

help...me guys huhu... nobody knows here about my car...don't even have a dynos here... i don't have a powerfc...i only have safc and avcr...how will i check if i have stock turbos??

i think my acvr reads mmhg below 1 bar??? am i right??? then 1.0 above i don't know the unit??? the avcr is really register top boost of 1.8...im not sure of the unit....

if i will adjust the acvr lower the duty cycle,ill keep the top boost below 1bar...does this mean im gonna lose power????

thanx
