As the title said do i need a 3 bar map sensor if i'm boosting 15psi at the track and yes i did search and found nothing?

 

Yes anything over over 11 PSI you need a 3bar map sensor.

End of Story

 

atpturbo sells the 3 bar for a fair price

Technically, anything over 11 psi and you need a 2bar or bigger.

You know I knew this was gonna pop up ...but instead of making it complicated and explaining that it's almost the same price and you have room to upgrade I just straight up said go 3bar...LOL . At least your right!

1 bar of vac 1 bar of boost. so a 2 bar is what he has.

he needs a 3 bar sensor.

1 bar vac. 2 bar boost.

platinum.

 

if you are going to be ****, be fully ****.

what he has is a 1.75 bar map sensor.
2 bar would allow him to run 14lbs before maxing out
2.5 bar is 21lbs
3 bar is 28lbs
3.5, 5 etc etc.

 

thats funny , ive ran continuous 13 lb passes on a stock honda map sensor , so it isnt 11 lbs.....

 

No one said your car is going to stop and blow up, the MAP just does not give a higher signal. Therefore you are not having any additional resolution to tune. You are just carrying on your last value for the 11psi column for all higher boost.

exactly, I run 13psi on my 1.75 bar but I "tuned" the 11.x psi column so it's a safe AFR even past the limit of the MAP. I have to run it slightly richer as is passes through 11psi so it ends up OK at 13psi. seems to work fine for quite a while now.

yea this is probalby what i would do if I were running 13psi. Anything over 13psi though and I would think it wouldn't run too smooth having to carry out that last column for 11-15psi.
