Try http://www.convert-me.com/en/convert/pressure

Looks like 1 Bar = 100 kPa

To simplify where boost gauges are concerned...

100 kpa is atmospheric pressure so less than 100 kpa is vacuum.

200 kpa would be 1.0 bar, 250 kpa 1.5 bar etc

Cheers,

Dan

Lee,

You would need to set it at...

170 kpa for 0.7 bar and 190 for 0.9 bar

Cheers,

Dan
