Alright to run 3bar map sensor with stock ecu?

Just wondering because I want to get it installed before I get to my tuner and the basemap I have for my chipped ecu/hondata is ****. Or is there a way to have both installed and run the stock one on the way there and just plug in the 3 bar? Thanks!

The stock ECU won't handle the 3bar. I agree with machine, just pre-wire it and then go a quick 5 minute solder job. You could solder those wires while they are strapping it down to the dyno

What he meens by this, is splice into the factory harness for the 3 bar's pigtail connection. Plum the vac line and mount the sensor, simply leave the 3 bar unplugged & run on the oem map sensor etc.
