This will tell you what the AVERAGE exhaust manifold pressure is, but you
need to realize/understand that the average pressure has little to do with
turbo or engine performance if you use a sophisticated (Bucci, for
instance) manifold design.

This is a classic case of Corkless Bell (and others) not having a clue
about much besides marketing.
