Default AEM 5 Bar Problems?

Can someone tell me how to wire an aem 5 bar? Which color on the map sensor goes to which color on the stock wiring? I searched and found that its the same as 3 bar. My 3 bar had different color wires than the 5 bar. I think I wired it up wrong because we tried starting the car and it was smoking from the exhaust manifold gasket, and spitting out fuel from that same place. Thanks.

if u try starting the car with out re-calibrating the EMS then its going to run EXTREMELY messed up, either very rich or very lean.

Save ur motor and re-calibrate ur EMS first.The wiring may not be messed up.

is there some kind of calibration required to make the 5 bar work correctly? it is selected as the map sensor of choice in our hondata chip.

Look at the last post on the thread. That is from the pigtail on the AEM.

Wire Sensor Code B Series
GND Green/White
MAP signal White
5V Yellow/Red

That is from the Honda side.
