Make sure the filter didn't fall out of the missing link... it will create quite the vacuum issue and can allow damage to your MAP sensor.

you can't use the stock map sensor on an engine which was not forced induction to begin with. it reads between usually .1 volts - 5 volts. (dc analog signal) boost will send a very high reading to the computer and your throttle response probly won't be what it should be. for faster throttle response and more accurate readings to the ecm you should get a performance MAF, not map. MAF is faster response time than MAP. good for forced induction

I have a stock map sensor on my car running 11 psi on a T3/T04. I have a 3 BAR, but haven't installed it yet.

Terrible advice thus far...

Get some real fuel management and not some hacked together ghetto **** and your problems will probably go away.

Are you talking about him getting an Electronic Management System or injectors (probably needs 440 cc) because Walbro FP and FMU seem all right to me?? I personally haven't had experience with using a vtec controller on a turbo Honda, but I've heard people have done it on low boost.

Yes, I am talking about something that controls fuel and ignition electronically like Hondata, Crome, Uberdata, EMS, etc, etc.

How many times does it have to be beaten into people's heads that engine management is the most important part of any healthy turbo setup?
