The x-axis represents the amount of air the turbo is shifting, normally expressed in cfm (just not on that map!!). Maybe this adjusted version of thats same compressor map will be easier to read :

ohhhh. ok so then how do I know where on the x-axis a given car falls? What determines if at .6 bar I am producing 215 cfm (75% efficiency) or 300 cfm (70% efficiency)?

The Y axis isn't boost pressure in BAR either, it is pressure ratio. The pressure ratio is:

(boost pressure (in psi) + inlet pressure (14.7 @ sea level) + IC losses) / inlet pressure.

that's not how you read a compressor map.

at 14psi from 3000-7000RPM you could travel through the entire heat efficiency island of the turbo depending on the volume air flow produced.

good thing you mentioned that, I was about to correct.

easy formula is 14.7 + boost / 14.7 = PR
