Default Terminator X Reading 117 KPa at Stall

So after a long wait I got my Terminator X and hooked it up to the 5.3. I noticed right away that the MAP reading (used the stick 5.3 sensor) is over the books stated 102, and reads 117 at Stall. It started just fine and after some learning idles well with a reading in the high 30s. The warm idle reading seems spot on but the high stall reading makes me think the sensor or calibration are no good. I poked around in the software and online but can't seem to find anything I did incorrectly in setup. I can always default to the internal sensor but am trying to avoid that.

when you say "stall", "high stall" what are you referring to? is the car stalling and dying at idle?

oh you mean key on, engine off. yeah you'll need to adjust the sensor table so it reads correctly.

When the engine is off the MAP sensor should be very close to the Baro reading. It is not unusual to see a variance of 2-4kPa, which can be fixed with an offset. If it is off more then that, you ether have the wrong MAP sensor selected, or your MAP sensor is bad.
