Never trust GE for a real-world EPR definition.

The more standard definition (ala P&W) for a dual-spool turbofan uses the LP turbine EXIT total pressure, not the inlet.

I think the first CF6-powered airplanes (N1 as primary) did have the "GE EPR" as a secondary gauge. That time has long since passed.
