-Jim Too many cars, not enough time..
i'd like one for my shelby to keep it stock looking!
Little update.
Getting a shippment of maps (Thanks to Kev). In a little bind with some things i gotta take care of first. I also tried to do some development on some...i found some interesting things with soldering..., if your not careful enough, you will melt the solder down into the connector hole...causing it to go solid, in return you wont be able to plug your sensor in...lol....i'll keep you posted.

bump, adding 3bar 3-bar
2022 Viper runs 9s
not to threadjack but whats the difference between 1 bar, 2, and 3 bar maps? I've heard about them but haven't a clue as to what they are lol
the map sensor is what tells the computer how much boost you are running. The computer uses it to know how much fuel and how much timing to give out. The stock 2bar map reads up to around 14psi So if you want to run more boost and want the computer to know about it you'll need to upgrade to a 3bar map. A 3 bar map reads up to around 28psi.

It becomes more self-explanatory if you know that 1 Bar= atmospheric pressure at sea level, ~14.5 psi.
So 'normal' pressure is ~14.5psi. We're experiencing this pressure right now. Your vacuum/boost gauge and your map sensor measure pressure differences from this standard pressure. so 0 on your vac/boost gauge is really ~14.5 psi absolute.
A non turbo map sensor is a 1 bar sensor.. it only reads from 0 (30" vacuum, outer space, etc) psi to ~14.5 psi (0" vacuum). a stock turbo-mopar map sensor is a 2 bar sensor, it can read from 0 psi to ~29 psi (from ~30" hg to ~14.5 psi of boost). a 3-bar sensor can read 14.5 past that, etc.
This becomes important for accurate fuel and timing control when you go past ~14.5 psi boost. A car with a stock 2-bar map sensor is injecting as much fuel as it's going to at ~14.5 psi of boost, because it cant measure any pressure above that to react to. You can build a car with a 2-bar map sensor to injector enough fuel at ~14.5 psi to actually have a safe a/f ratio at 20psi, for example, but if the a/f ratio is right at 20 psi that means its stupid rich at 14.5, so you would be better off with a 3-bar setup to accurately control your fuel delivery at those boost pressures.
Dont push the red button.You hear me?
3-bar for me plz
this sensor are a gm type, or look like srt4 sensors?
im lookin for a 3 bar map sensor for my srt4; any one have one of this?, mi mail is miguellujan@live.com.mx
any news?
Actually, yes. I am back in the game. Sorry, had some personal things that needed to come first. Currently i have a few cases ready for implant. These maps will be tested this month. I currently suspect that in the beginning of the next month i will have a batch ready to go out.

I'll take a 3-bar!!
I'll take a 3 bar as well

wish I had known about this before I spent the money on the Mopar 3-bar map sensor for my srt-4....very nice
I'm in for one
Well, i took apart a different type of case this morning and found it not to have that gooey crap inside! Makes it a crap load better, plus it includes better plugs to solder on...its not hollow so the solder will not go down into the hole..and they also cemented the lugs in place so you can't get it so hot tha the pin will become loose...nice...
Simon and i would like to know if you could whip up some 4 bar maps?
