Canadian boost Gauge?
So I just got my black Cobalt ss/sc and I know I am to expect 12psi boost once the engine and everything is broken in. I wanted to see what kind of boost I was getting and I just noticed my gauge is in KPa. It goes from -140 to 100KPa. Does anyone know what the KPa to PSi convergents is? I am assuming mine is in KPa because I live in Canada, the whole metric thing.

Yes there are flaws, a friend of mine who took deliver of his SS the same day as me has an american boost guage in his from the factory! He had it for like a month until he even noticed it!. Wish mine had that "flaw". What the hell is a kilopascal anyways lol. like in back to the future "what the hells a gigawatt"?
