Auto VE, 1 Bar Map, and FI
If you are putting your car into OLSD tuning for auto VE, and you have FI, what happens at boost with a 1 bar MAP? I am still on the wall about going to SD tuning all together. Can I, should I install a 2 bar MAP, but run it with the MAF? Then maybe have 2 tunes and compare easily?
Thanks.
Thanks.

As for ditching the MAF....I keep reading and reading and it seems that running under 10 lbs I am better off with the MAF?

I ditched my MAF and I run NA. Makes the engine bay look better and its one less damn thing to tune.

You can search forever here on the pros/cons of speed density tunes. I like them simply because it eliminates the MAF. Why have 2 sensors that control the same thing? Id rather just have one to deal with. Plus I have a cool looking bellow now too.

I went CO3 this weekend..Sadly I realized I have the wrong MAP sensor. My fault really, I asked the dealer to look it up instead of researching myself, it looks like I have a LS6 1 BAR MAP 16212460 I will order 12580698 Monday. I went for a ride and started logging, hit boost once watched it go lean...pulled over fattened up the boost table, watched it do the same thing and realized something was not right. I am in no hurry...I will just take it easy until I get the right MAP.
