Default How much will my tune change with 2 different map sensors.

I am about to do some street tuning and I wanna know if i should wait till i get a new 3 bar map sensor, or just do some tuning with my OEM one first...

Ideally i would like to run around 14 psi... but i wanna make it safe for now...

can i just change my map sensor later on using chrome or will it change EVERYTHING?

you can have have the 3 bar wired in later on and still have your OEM map plugged in but only 1 at a time..

yes your tune will be off because it will not be fed the right sigal.....

ok, well i just spliced the wires, so i can run one or the other... but im just wondering if it will really change things when i switch back and forth on the Crome program

it will matter because each map sensor is scaled differently. that is, with the same input (vacuum/boost) they output different voltages
