    VCM Scanner IMAP scaling / offset issue?

    Logged traces on a largely stock calibration. Compared intake manifold absolute pressure trace to a calculated trace based on a map lookup of desired boost + barometric pressure, EGR on. Traces do not align...checked closed loop boost enablement fuel and maximum vane position limit. Anyone else seen this issue?

    Seems that I was fooled by the nomenclature on these maps. Seems "Desired boost low - EGR on" is the map for the barometric pressures we see in Illinois (95 - 100kPa). Guess I was fooled by the "boost" (I assumed gauge pressure) and "low barometric pressure" descriptions (apparently this means low altitude).

    Are all of the "LOW" maps actually for low altitude and not "low barometric pressure"? Looking into the fuel control timing advance tables for coolant temperature, these are listed as "low altitude".

    Can anyone confirm?

    Yes you are correct. Also, check the description of the table in the bottom of the window, and it should tell you low barometric pressure for anything that says "low"
