For the other FMIC this adds up, just for the ETS it doesn't seem to. (Or I am assuming there is a relationship which is not there....)
the input pressure is the ambient barometric pressure which is always 14.5 at sea level it has nothing to do with boost pressure,(unless you are at a very high altitude or very low valley) which is the measured pressure above the input pressure/barometric pressure!
