    surprised your tuner didnt pick up on that......
    guess he aint getting paid to build a working motor

    stock map will read to 11psi,u r losing resolution on the sensor & the ecu just dont know what fuel to dish out,get a 3bar MAP now if u want to push out to 20psi

    if u r going to 20psi,upgrade the pump wiring,for the cost of 3m of wire & an hour to install it,be better than having your tuner sitting around at $XXX/hr scratching his head again,expensive people to have standing around goin thru your setup tryin to solve little issues.
    stock honda wiring was not designed to spin a high pressure pump & keep it at a decent working voltage,the pump will either fail to deliver what u want from it or u will prematurely age the pump by overworking it.

    wont i only need a 2bar map sensor considering 2bar is 29.4psi (1 bar = 14.7psi x 2 = 29.4psi)

    3 or 4 bar is a little excessive. lol 4bar is 58.8psi... i could take my eg to the moon if it could run that amount of boost.

    MAP is manifold "absolute" pressure,meaning read from perfect vaccuum=0psi

    atmospheric is already 14.7 psi of your map sensor=1bar

    14.7psi boost=atmo + 14.7=2 bar
    29.4psi boost=atmo + 29.4=3 bar

    u can get a 2.5bar,but thats not leaving u much headroom ontop of 20psi,so id just get the next size,but thats up to u.

    Ahhh k,

    yep so i will need a 3bar map sensor.

    So, if the stock MAP can only read upto 10-11psi, that would make it atmo + 11 = 25.7psi, whats that about 1.5-1.8bar?

    stock MAP is a 0-5Volt sensor,
    atmo works out to be about 3V,so u got 2V of boost left on it.

    heard figures of 1.8bar & 11psi being tossed about all the time,never tried it myself,so couldnt really confirm any of them.

    Nah well the injectors seem to be running fine upto 10-11psi but im the stock map sensor fails around that time so im thinking it has to be that.

    boosted dc2...
    just something ekse for safe keeping i always try n use -
    make sure the fpr vac line is independant - ie nothing else is running in line with it
    that way at least the fuel pressure vac line shouldnt have any interferance
    good luck
    Boosted Integra underway!
