It does matter. When you run real boost like 2.0,2.1,2.2 bar/kg/atm the conversion makes a HUGE difference in the actual boost. I ran into that issue because my AEM was configured to read in bar, and my GReddy gauge was kg/cm^2. Ofcourse if you run a max boost of 3psi, it doesn't matter too much.

For example at 2.0atm vs 2.0kg/cm^2, there is an entire psi of difference (29.4psi vs 28.4psi)! Thats significant.

I don't understand why this is so hard for people. Each .1 bar= 1.45 psi. You can probably even round that to 1.5 in your head and get away with it for boost levels less than insane boost.
