8 to 10 wiil be fine with factory map.... but for 25 bux you can go with the 2.5 motorolla and when you get tuned your boost can go to round 19 psi

i thought if u run any kind of boost you had to get a diff. map sensor. cause if the map sensor reads boost it will set off the check engine light, or something like that. not really sure why u had to change it.Originally Posted by dallasb84
with no tune you will throw a code if the map senses boost.....
if you have a chipped ecu with a basemap there will be no code....
once you get it tuned you can run around 10 psi with the factory map
i suggest getting an upgraded map. who knows what youur future may hold..... you might fall in love with boost and do a bigger build and hell youll already have ecu and sensor wise the necessary harware to support more power. i overlooked the map and wel..... its about a 500 dollor mistake.... since i have to get a whole new tune.... rather than just a small touch up...
the motorolla map is 25 bux and can support 19psi iirc so its more a investment than anything else in your case....
thanks for your input. i might just try the motorolla one. but i was doing some read up on them and it said something that they are not direct fit to the OEM map sensor.
yea most of them are not the same as the oem but will work fine i have a gm 2bar map sensor only thing is i had to just run a vac line to it and wire it to my stock map sensor wires
well my cousin talked to scotty at mainstream and he said that my stock map sensor will be fine with the amount of boost im running.
