Both the BARO and MAP sensors can see boost in absolute terms.
The max the MAP can see is about (approx) 1700mBar and since BARO shares the same voltages, (and i think Honda intended it whis way) so too can the BARO.

imagine the throttle open and you blowing air at 200km/h towards this open throttle,
similar to a turbo perhaps?
yes, it will only be marginal, but *theoretically* it is possible.
and is used most *practially* on motorbikes.
so what is your point?Quote:

Am I wrong that the speed of the car can aid in compression of the air going into the cylinder?
Hold on
I think we're arguing the same point here.
Ive been saying they have similar operation from the start.
They share too many similarities and from the code one backs up the other.

i dotn see why a baro sensor would see kpa when seea level is the lowest level and thus anything lower is physically impossible.
the air at higher altitude would see less desnity, and ie less PW per cycle of injector. but the map sesnor can do this. why would the baro do this? >.< stupid late nite drinking owns my brain

disconnect your MAP sensor and tell me if the bitch still idles!
There's your proof right there!
yer i know the density argument, but the colder air that an NA car draws into the chamber is still the same temp as ambient air outside. Therefore if we define VE as to be 100% filled cylinders, it is 100% filled but filled with 100% colder air, the reason for boost being above 100% VE is that the physical volume of the air in the cylinders equates to more than 100% of the chambers capacity compared to ambient outside.
unless u have a different definition of VE? or that im wrong that the cars speed does not affect the airs compression into the chamber!
I agree with you entirely, cam overlap causes a "suck" in the piston chamber which will allow you to fill the cylinders.
this whole thread has been a pissing comp on who has the best information.
it is highly likely that we will all be arguing about very similar concepts, if not from slightly different perspectives on the same issue...
hence the appearance that we are arguing when we are really thrashing out the info we have to develop a combined stance on the controversial issues.
poor pornstar is caught in the middle trying to grasp what we (or maybe just me) are still ourselves trying to comprehend and convey to the world...

pornstar the BARO and MAP *see* things opposite, that is why the MAP is called an ABSOLUTE sensor, it tries to see vacuum as a positive rationale to make it a useful input to the MAP/RPM table
