my gauge reads about .85 BAR, which is the atmospheric pressure at my altitude. remember: 1BAR is 14.7 PSI, always and forever, which is atmospheric pressure at sea level. at my altitude there is simply less atmospheric pressure, which is why my gauge reads less than 1 BAR, and which is why cars at this altitude have less horsepower, and therefore the numbers are corrected on the dyno, unless they have forced induction of some kind, turbo or supercharger.
