    3 bar map sensor

    Are there plans to offer support for a 3 bar map sensor for the guys with forced induction LSx motors?

    Re: 3 bar map sensor

    we plan to have 2 bar support (been testing for a few months now), but haven't really had much interest in 3 bar. it wouldn't take much to extend our 2 bar into 3. Although i think 5 kPa resolution misght be overkill on the VE table for that.

    Chris, if you need any beta testers for either 2 bar or 3 bar, I might know a guy

    I have both maps sitting on the bench just waiting...

    Re: 3 bar map sensor

    Great news!!! Thanks guys. We took a MAP sensor from a 2004 supercharged Monte Carlo SS and look forward to trying it out. I'm guessing that is a 2 bar sensor, since all the info I've read on GM stuff shows that they only offered a 1 bar and 2 bar sensors for sale to public.

    3 bar map sensor can be bought over gm counter GM #16040749
    It just never came installed on any factory vehicles.
    There is no replacement for displacement?&&sure there is, its called a Blower!

    Decision has been made guys, it will be done, no confirmed timeframe as yet. Resolution will be 10kpa from 100-300 kpa as i don't think we need a VE table the size of Texas (or Australia)

    Awaiting the thread for 4bar...

    Definately another interested in 3 bar here. It's unfortunate that the jumps in sensor are so great, but looking to run between 17-20 psi here.
