Default EFI Live FI Users..2 Bar Sensor Help

I am running a P1SC at ~ 7lbs. I have maxxed out my MAF and will go SD soon. I have a 2 bar MAP sensor that I need to install. What will i need to do from a tuning standpoint to use this sensor and to map it in my COS with a boost VE table?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

First thing is to go into scan with your old MAP sensor installed before any changes are made. Check your MAP PSI readings with the key on engine not running. Install the new MAP sensor. Now go into scan and change the MAP sensor scaler so that the PSI readings in scan mode match the old PSI reading with the key on engine not running. This will be in cell C6301. My stock MAP scaler was 94.4336, 2 bar MAP is now 196.9922.

Hopefully this will get you started. There are some helps on this on the EFILive forum.
