Isnt a stock map sensor something like 1.5 bar? I can rememeber. Also looking for a 3bar map sensor with pig tial.

 

1.75bar, meaning 11.2ish psi

 

thanks

 

i bar is almost 14 psi, so i doubt that 1.75 will work, but I have heard up to 11

1.75 bar =
atmosphere (so take 1 bar away) + .75 bar (11.02) = 1.75 bar

you have to take atmospheric away.

 

1 bar is 14.5psi if anyone cares

so there would be the .2 i am missing.

 

Get your self a 2.5bar motorolla or a 3bar gm sensor

 

1 bar is 14.7, not 14.5

 

google 1 bar =
14.504 psi
1 atmoshpere at sea level is 14.7

i know i was confused at first too.

 

hahaha..omg. stock map sensor is good for what psi?

no, that is not true. one ATM is 14.7

 

11.2 PSI

 

you sure it's not 10.875psi?

 

how are you guys even getting 11.2?

.75 x 14.5 = 10.875

 

haha..man. didnt think it was that hard. so stock map it good for 11.2psi, or 12psi or 14.5psi lol

 

If you plan on going over 11 then get a bigger map sensor.

It is only good to around 11 psi, who cares about the damn decimal point anyway, you guys are like damn chemists! ha

 

hahaha..im just wondering. Im planning breaking in the motor at 10psi or so. Thanks

 

10 psi in a gauge will read about 8 some in the map sensor...

 

Its a 1.75bar sensor that gives you the full 1.75bar range and then some. Not many sensors that play a key role will have a range less than what they are rated for.

BTW if it matters, 1.75bar OBD0 MAP's can only read about 10.8psi due to the diaphram being a diff design, OBD1+ MAP's read over 11psi.

 

one problem with pushing a MAP sensor to the limit is you loose the overboost feature. if you are boosting a stock map sensor anywhere over 10psi, you will not have a reliable boost cut.

x2 and you dont want to do that... the boost cut will keep your motor alive if something goes wrong, like a wastegate line coming off or whatnot.

 

was playing with the hondata boost controller last night and i hit the boost cut several times (10.5 psi) on the stock map sensor that is
