turbo fuel management

RE: turbo fuel management
Yeah, I already found out what happens when the map sensor isnt setup right. When i upgraded my throttle body the oring for stock was half the size of what it needed to be, and the seal on the map didnt exist.... needless to say that was an interesting problem, and didnt find out that the oring was the problem until i put back on the intake pipe........ not really much difference in sound when you cant hear a certain area. But by no means am i saying hey, lets go ahead and screw those parts, just trying to find out if i can skip some steps and goto a better part, mind you, pre 1500$ ems system lol

Personally, if I were you I get a wideband O2, the gm map sensor, Walbro 255, some 550cc injectors, and Hondata. Piggybacks are a joke, if you're serious about a turbo you'll go standalone. It's really too bad your car is OBDII, otherwise you could save a lot of $$$ by chipping it yourself.

lol this is an old thread ^_^
sublime96 - the purpose of the missing link is to maintain a stock stock 1 bar map on a stock ecu.... it basially prevents the code being thrown cause the map sensor and ecu cant understand the boost pressure thats being created.... but to answer youre question im not sure.... it looks like in order to deal with boost emanage needs the "ultimate pressure sensor"

RE: turbo fuel management
Yeah its an old thread... I had to do a search on this Missing Link MAP thingy...
I think Ive been converted to OBD1...
I bought the Emanage like 5+years ago... Not plannin on bying no stand alone...Mydumpin money days are over.... But I have recently let go of my other daily drivers... SO, now im just trying to get this thing as reliable/drivable as possible!
Guess Ill just buy that Missing Link to see what if any difference is made.

RE: turbo fuel management
well what will really decide it for you, do you have an engine code being thrown complaining about map sensor pressure and does your car bog down? if it doesnt you dont need it and if your car is pre 98 you most likely can socket and rechip your ecu which means you dont have to use the stock map sensor and you dont have to use the bypass

RE: turbo fuel management
what do you mean by socket and rechip? My engine light has Never Turned off since I put boost in it like5-6 years ago.... Bogging...? Yeah my car probably does that too....

Meaning if your car is pre-1998 aka OBDI you can buy an ECU, socket it with a 28 pin ZIF socket, and use an EEPROM chip to run the car instead of the stock program its using now.
