Default 3 Bar Map Sensor help

I've been reading around about the 3 bar map sensors. I know they are required to be used if you are running 12+PSI of boost. Can they be used with lower boost as well? I will be running 9psi daily... If you have any ideas on good deals and info on these can you please let me know

With the GM 3bar, you can run anything up to 29psi. If you think you might go over 11psi in the near future, there's no reason not to get one.

I'd get the omnipower 4 bar...mine works great and is plug n play....Sooo much easier to install not having to wire anything

you can run past that number as well. its just that the fuel will only follow that last column on the table.

sorry to thread jack...

I'm running 7 psi with no plans to go higher. Can a tuner make the stock map sensor work (I do have a missing link installed just to keep the CEL off while I test.) Or should I get the gm 3 bar map senor?
