I guess its a matter of when Eric gets the chance to do it.
I have had to stop tuning my car due to going too rich when maxing out the sensor.
Don't really feel like lifting a head.
So what part number bosch map sensor is being used for this??
I have got the 3.5bar 0 281 002 456
Which is a 50-350kpa sensor.
I don't know how it will go as my engine idles in gear 22kpa on the scanner.
I have also got the 3 bar sensor as well which is 20-300kpa 0 281 002 437.
I have given Eric both numbers and info so hopefully either will work
Do you have to upgrade the boost sensor as well?
I very much doubt you will be tuning closed loop boost control with 22+ psi....so forget the boost sensor. Bugsy, don't worry about the sensors range. I would be very interested to know what the factory slope and offset values are for the t-MAP. I suspect it maybe difficult to make sense of the factory calibration (2.5bar) as it relates to the Bosch data. Hopefully Eric understands it and can share the factory values and explain the units.
The data for these two sensors that I have is from bosch.
I don't know what the scales from ford would change.
But the bosch stuff it pretty Straight forward.
I sent Eric the link to were I purchased them from.
They have all the info on the site.
Its not that straight forward. Bosch don't just give the data as it is input into the calibration. The slope and offset have to be calculated which is easy enough, but then it needs to be in the correct units that the calibration requires. This is where it sometimes isn't so straight forward. I'm sure Eric is all over it though and i'd like to see the factory data.
I'm assuming these are the same. They have 1bar, 3bar, 3.5bar, and 4bar listed as well.

spot on Jaime
I purchased the 3.5bar bosch tmap, talking to Eric last night he needs the Slope and intercept Values in inHG Per Volt format
I have worked out that the slope and intercept formula is y=mx+b
y=Pressure
x=Voltage
m=Scalar
b=offset
so the range of the 3.5 bar sensor is

I worked out that y=75x+12.5 using http://www.miniwebtool.com/slope-int...rm-calculator/
so now if you change x to any voltage you will get the pressure that the sensor will read, i.e
75x0.5+12.5 = 50Kpa
75x4.5+12.5 = 350Kpa
75x2.0+12.5 = 162.5Kpa
so obviously it will go up in a linear form no matter what voltage is picked, but can anyone help to change the values to inHG Per Volt format for eric to put into my tune?
is it as simple as saying
50kpa = 14.76505 inHG @ 0.5v
350kpa = 103.35535 inHG @4.5v
thanks, Joe
looking at a Holden file, the description for,
MAP Sensor Linear: the linear calibration of the MAP sensor (slope) in pressure per 5 volts
MAP Sensor Offset: the offset calibration of the MAP sensor. ie. MAP pressure at 0 Volts
doesn't exactly clear it up for me,
75x0+12.5= 12.5Kpa = 3.691262 inHG
75x5+12.5= 387.5 = 114.429137 inHG
but the graph that comes with the sensor flat lines at 0.5v and 4.5v

Peppy,
You are on to it but need to convert the 75 and 12.5 as well as it is in Kpa. So
75KpA = 75/100*29.535 = 22.15125
12KpA = 12.5/100 * 29.535 = 3.691875
inHg = v * 22.15125 + 3.691875
Just reading again, intercepts are x = 0 and y = 0 so
0 = V * 22.15125 + 3.691875 => V = -3.691857/22.15125 = -0.166666
x = 0, so InHg = 3.691875
The flat lines are outside of the range, ie below the minimum reading and above the range of the sensor (5V). I would not worry about then too much.
P.S. Sorry for the not converting to inHg properly in previous versions. I suspect Eric is after the slope = 22.15125 inHg/Volt and offset is 3.691875 which you have down all the work for.

Keep up the good work Peppy_t, this would be a real breakthrough for HP Tuners and cause much grief for SCT! I believe we now have the slope and offset for Eric, bugsy and I (and another Territory turbo) will now be able to tune in this range
Well there you go, I actually enjoy numbers and your basic math, but this would of taken me a couple more days to work out haha, so thank you Darryl, much appreciated..
Hopefully Eric sees this, I might email him again to be sure,
My sensor is about a week away, motor and box are probably 2 weeks away, so it sounds like there is some exciting stuff to come

The pressure conversion looks ever so slightly off there DarrylC
I used MS calc to conversion. If I use Real Calc on Android the KpA -> inHg conversion is 29.52998 (29.53) which is what I use in my programs. Therefore:
You are on to it but need to convert the 75 and 12.5 as well as it is in Kpa. So
75KpA = 75/100*29.53 = 22.1475 (was 22.15125)
12KpA = 12.5/100 * 29.53 = 3.69125 (was 3.691875
inHg = v * 22.1475 + 3.69125
Just reading again, intercepts are x = 0 and y = 0 so
0 = V * 22.1475 + 3.69125 => V = -3.69125/3.69125 = -0.166666
x = 0, so InHg = 3.69125
The flat lines are outside of the range, ie below the minimum reading and above the range of the sensor (5V). I would not worry about then too much.

Given the differences then I don't think it would make have any change on the accuracy of the calculation of the MAP value as the numbers were outside the range of the voltage accuracy.
