just wondering if anyone has boosted more than 28lbs. i've heard it can be done but couldn't find anything on search.

 

AFAIK the 3 bars are only good up to 29 psi. To get the capacity for a MAP sensor you subtract 1 bar from it's rating, then multiply the remainder by 14.5 or 14.7 (I forget which). (3-1) x 14.5 = 29 psi or 29.4 psi if you multiply by 14.7.

EDIT: another way to do it is convert BAR to psi then subtract 14.7 psi. That will tell you about how much psi the MAP sensor can handle.

 

we are running a 3 bar on an Accel DFI gen 7. i belive the computer cant read a 5 bar or something? im not sure, but we have hit 50 psi on it, and its still working properly.

 

Not be rude or thread jack, where is the best place to get a 5 bar.
