  1. A two bar map sensor will read two bars of pressure. In an engine the first bar is usually negative or vacuum. Psi is a positive unit of measure not negative hense why vac/boost gauges don't read negative psi for vacuum. InHg is known unit for negative pressure, I.e. vacuum. 1 bar= 14.7 psi=29.5 inhg. So a 2 bar map sensor can read up to 29.5 inhg in vacuum and 14.7 psi in boost. Or if you want to talk absolute terms. 200 kpa, where 0-100 is vacuum, 100-200kps is boost.

  2. The map sensor will read more than 14.7 vacuum. Figuring that a healthy motor will idle in between 18 to 21 without a hub overlap cam. 2 bar maps will only read 14.7 pressure. Reason it being call a manifold absolute pressure sensor.

    If you're going boosted just run a SD tune. A lot easier than running both. Just saying.

    You are mistaking psi with inhg.

  3. Where would this max out at and will it work on a 2003

    14.7

    Yes and yes. It came of off my 2004. And a 2 bar sensor reads 14.7psi of vacuum and 14.7 of positive boost in kpa terms it reads 205 kpa

  4. There is also the patc planetaries that have a gear ratio of 2.97. However they are pricy at 1100$ just for the gear set.

  5. There are a few red flags here, the AWD >>> 2wd switch can be done but that requires a transfer case swap. 1000cc injectors are way over kill for an N/A 408. Unless you plan on fi latter down the road. Here is where things get sketchy. A 408 can make 550hp provided the cam and compression is there. And very doable with those heads. However, if compression is low to take advantage of the 1000cc injectors, I doubt that that 408 will make that power.

  6. If your truck doesn't start after a flash, it could mean something went wrong. Provided it is your tune that is going in and not say a different tune that was opened at the same time. In which case the pcm might be in a dead pole state. Try doing a full flash (efilive) or a write entire (hptuners) and when that is complete try restarting the truck. Hope this helps

  7. You need to connect the autocal to your truck, then the pc, start the software, the connect the software to the truck... Then go to validate pids. The software will communicate with the onboard modules and validate the pids that are available. If after doing that they still don't show up, then they never where supported on the ls1 pcm

  8. For all of you who have removed the screen, did you guys see a bebefit? Better yet what was the purpose of doing so, has anybody put a vacuum gauge before and after the MAF to see what the pressure difference is? Or have you guys seen vacuum in the intake manifold at wot? The sole purpose of the sensor is to precisely monitor air intake by the engine. Why mess with it when it's such a crucial sensor. I've been looking for the log of a descreened MAF to show what happens to the readings, but I can't find it.
