Boost pressure is almost always referred to using 1 bar (14.7 PSI, atmospheric pressure at sea level) as the "zero point". The 951 is one of the few cars that shows absolute pressure on the boost guage rather than pressure relative to atmospheric pressure at sea level.
woooouuuuu slow please .. I'm not too smart ..

That means, when I see 1.8 bar in my gauge, is really 11.76 PSI of boost .. ?

Or boost is all presure in the intake manifold .. then, when I see 1.8 bar of boost in my gauge, that means, my turbo is was generating 26.46 PSI of boost .. ?
