hi guys i found these voltage to pressure conversion for our map sensor:
max reading 1760mbar =4,96v
1700mbar=4,80v
1600mbar=4,52v
1500mbar=4,25v
1400mbar=3,97v
1300mbar=3,69v
1200mbar=3,42v
1100mbar=3,15v
1000mbar=2,87v
900mbar=2,60v
800mbar=2,32v
700mbar=2,05v
600mbar=1,77v
500mbar=1,50v
400mbar=1,22v
300mbar=0,94v
200mbar=0,67v
100mbar=0,40v
can anyone confirm these?
I assume ur talkin stock map sensor.
Last time i saw a map sensor graph,it was actually inverse to the readings u have given above.
approx 3V = 0 mbar
approx 0V = 1000mbar
My memory could have failed me,but i'd try some more research before using the figures u give.
hmm okay ill keep looking into it
its cool i got it
0.5v = -25 inhg
3v = 0psi
5v = 9.824 psi
Yeah dude,forget what i said about that inverse crap,i dont know where i saw that.
However,im actually sitting in my car as i read this thread,so i pulled out the multi to see what was goin on.
As u can imagine im just idling so hard to put load on the engine.
Anyway i got
at idle 0.84 V = about 4psi
and with quick short stabs of the throttle to show some load i was seeing about 2.8V = 14psi
so i dont know where u got those figures from,but id be interested to know.
are u talkin stock map sensor?
so it looks like your initial figures were correct.
weird, my stock sensor shows the second values as valid.. this is on a 97 ek1
ive looked through one of the civic manuals i have and it matches the second figures
I just looked up my integra B18C manual & just realised where i got that inverse crap from,i just remember seeing the slope of the graph,but now i look at it again,its actually measured against vacuum not absolute pressure.
But anyway,this confirms your original figures & im fairly sure all honda map sensors are the same.It confirms my readings as well.Plus i remember reading the stock map is good for 1.8 bar boost which also confirms your original figures.
It shows approx 2.9V = 0inHg = 14.5psi(or whatever atmospheric pressure is at the time).Heres the pic from my manual,

EDIT: Duhhh,i just read your second figures again & theyre roughly the same as your first ones,im so confused,sorry for stuffing u around,u were right the first time,i should learn not to trust my memory.
Its 1.8bar, atmosphereic pressures.
This means that its 1.8bar - 1bar (our atmosphere)
= .8bar
= 10-11psi is as good a resolution that it can maintain :)

Sorry man, for once i wasnt trying to have a go at someone. just provide some info to complement yours. lol :)Quote:

lol all good thanx for the info guys.
