psi = pressure per sq. inch. when you hear auto guys taking about psi, they are most likely talking about boost pressure (how much psi their f/i is putting out), or their tire pressure, which will affect your launch and handling charactieristics. hope that helps.

PSI: normally talking about a form of forced induction in the automotive world. (PSI generally stands for pounds per square inch)

Or he could be talking about his tire pressure. That sounds more like a noob question, according to him.
