a buddy of mine showed me this great link http://rmdsm.org/forums/showthread.php?t=2393

show airflow for many turbos. what i was wondering is if anyone knows of a calculator that will convert lbs of air to cfm depending on your boost. trying to figure out what my max boost will be on my sbr-g50 (48lb/min)

***admin edit - link changed to the source site where that info was copied from ***
 
13.49cfm= 1 lb/min, so 48lb/min=647.8cfm.
I got the info from my desktop dyno program.
 
thanks. figured out that on dsmlink you can actually change it from gm to lb.
 
Too bad they "stole" that information from rmdsm.org

Art Hoffman put it together.

As was stated before, converting lb/min to cfm doesnt depend on boost. As far as what is the possible max boost, would depend on you. You could run it at any boost level as long as you are not in the choke region of the compressor. Now, obviously you would want to run it in its max efficiency island as much as you can. Hope that cleared things up.

P.S. Awesome Find.
