Default 00 turbo ta...2bar 3bar??? Wtf

Ok so now I'm confused... I have a 2000 ta, WHAT maf sensor do I need? I'm planning on 12 to 14psi. I am completey lost! What bar does mine have stock?and what will I need? I have one from a turbo cobalt but heard it won't work??? Then I heard my computer wont read three bar?

I tryed searching...do they make one that I can simply plug in and not worry about? Btw Its a SD tune I wanna go with

I also don't want to be drilling a tapping anything

thanks

any 2 or 3 bar, wiring may be needed. Stock is a 1bar (7psi)

I have a Grand National 2bar (old style) but a custom harness so it doesnt matter.

Your better off running a single line for the gate, and a line for the bov. you can run the bov of the booster and the gate off the intake. try a sponser........>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

It is a map sensor you are looking for. Which one will depend on how much boost you want to be able to tune for. The stock sensor is 1 bar which reads zero boost only vaccum. A 2 bar will read vaccum-15 psi and 3 bar will read vaccum-30 psi. I do not believe they make a plug and play 3 bar sensor but there is a plug a play 2 bar. There is a ton of info about MAP sensors in one of the stickies.

If your going SD tune and dont have a fitting in the compressor of your turbo for your wastegate ,just remove your (mass air flow) sensor completly,,,,,, and put in a delete pipe like i did and just tap or weld a fitting into it and you can use this for your waste gate or boost controler .On the other note,,, the Colbalt 2 bar is what im running also. Plug and play and works great IMO

MAF gets deleted. BOV gets manifold reference (after throttle body) which will see both boost and vacuum. The wastegate should be referenced at the compressor housing for the turbo. This should see little if any vacuum. Only boost.

Go at least 3 bar, trust me, you will be glad you did. If you ever have a boost spike at least you will be able to know how far it went.

Actually the wastegate can be referance anywhere at or aft the turbo as long as its before the throttle body!
