1 PSI = 0.06894757 Bar

or

1 Bar = 14.50377 PSI

Remember that
1 Atmosphere = 14.69595 PSI

and
1 Bar = 0.9869233 Atmosphere

Thanks, so a 20PSI gauge would read up to 1.37 bar
a 30psi reads to 2.067 bar. Most after market bar gauges seem to read all the way to 2 bar but it seems from what I have read that going over 1 bar is a bad idea anyway, so should a 20psi gauge be good enough?

More than enough. You dont want to run more than 1 bar on a 930 with bolt on mods(without opening engine)
