Bob Rawle is your man .... did a fantastic job of mine

Cheers

Hi

I'm pretty sure your boost gauge in kgm2 is the same as bar, 1 bar being around 14.5 psi. So 0.9 bar should be around 13 psi me thinks.

Sorry to be pedantic and over-accurate, but 0.9 Kg force per metre squared is 0.00008825985 bar. Which is a little less pressure than a gnat farting

Realistically, it will be kg force per centimeter squared. 1 kgf/cm2 is 0.980665 bar or 14.22334 psi. Bar and kgf/cm2 are therefore the same to within the accuracy of your guage.

Hope that helps?

Edit as a typo on a pedantic message is asking for trouble
