map sensor reading higher boost
Posted: Tue Dec 22, 2015 3:45 pm
So we have been trying to diagnose this issue for two days now. My setup is a k20a kswap with JR supercharger using 3" supercharger pulley and 2002-2004 rsx type S crank pulley. Which the boost output should be around 11psi with these pulley combo. Before Ive made a few changes to the intake system such as the bigger supercharger inlet and bigger throttle body, the car ran perfectly fine. Nothing else has changed as to pulley size. So for some reason the omni 4 bar map sensor is picking up 16psi while the static boost should only be 11psi. We have tried changing the scalar value for the map sensor, even knocking it in half, the only thing that it did was making the car runs worse while the boost reading does not change. We have changed out the map sensor to a brand new one, still has the same issue. Anyone has any idea on what we should try next? Thanks for the help
