I'm not really sure what a kpa is :eek7:

.1 mpa = 14.7 psi

1 BAR = 14.7 psi

I think a kpa is .001 mpa, so 14.7 psi = 100 kpa

in which case you should boost around 100 kpa in 3rd-5th gear.



edit: this page answers all - http://www.airdive.com.au/Main/Tech_Info/tech_pages/pctable.htm

It appears I was mostly right, except it's 14.5 instead of 14.7 in all the numbers.
