Yes, .8 bar is over 11 PSI, that does not count as "low" pressure.

What the f they mean by "kg" for pressure I have no idea.




I asked him and he explained me that wrongly some people use Kgs as BARs... but that it was the same thing:


1 BAR = 1.02 Kg/Cm^2 and both are pressure units.... but that saying Kilos was easier than saying BARS...


And the 0.8 Bars is indeed 11.6 PSI.

In their rating, that is really LOW pressure, for they have some engines running with more than 2 BARs !!!


I think that is because they have the option to have ALCOHOL as the fuel (which he told me 80% of the high pressure turbos are running on), and it is more resistant to compression.
