You don't use the GM 3bar map sensor for the Greddy e-manage. You would use the Greddy Pressure sensor (which is 3 bar) to hook up to the unit. The original manufacturer is DENSO, and they use the same pressure map sensor as the APexi' Power FC. If you MUST use the GM 3 bar sensor, plan to change managment altogther for best results, but the pressure sensor from Greddy isn't that expensive, and can be easily ordered.

i have the pressure sensor alredy, i was under the assumption that it was used to control the voltage clamp and that it wasnt a map sensor in itself?

No it IS the map sensor. It works in conjunction with your STOCK OEM map sensor. Youd don't disconnect the one to use the other. this really helps with a smooth transition.

adjust the boost cut limiter to a lower voltage. for odb2 civics it should be a max of 2.95v, 2.9v to be safe.

DOnt ask around here for this kind of stuff, look onthe yahoo emanage group. There is a heep of information on how to use a GM 3bar instead of the greddy pressure sensor. Its very easy and these guys are just haters who have no idea what they are talking about!
