Default 1 bar vs 3 bar question

Can the stock placement 3 bar map sensor work on stock tune? As far as starting the car enough to drive it on a trailer? Or hear it run after I do a head swap? Since il have the manifold off it will be much easier to change it out for the 3 bar while it's off.

I plan to get the 3 bar map from efi source. http://www.efisource.com/product-category/controllers/

Yes, it will work. It just gives the sensor the ability to read 3 bar. you can use a 3 bar sensor on a NA build up you wish

It will work but the settings have to be changed in the ecm to match the sensor. are you equipped to do that.

No, I don't have any program to tune. I just want to put the sensor in and be able to start it and drive it on the trailer.

if it is literally just on and off the trailer you will probably be ok.

It's done. Just fighting little stupid issues. Really just need to put the intake back on it but I can't get motivated.
