Default A few final Terminator Max X questions

I am finally finishing up the wiring on my LS swap and have run into a few quick issues. First of all, is there any problem with just leaving the connector labeled fuel hanging? I don't have a fuel pressure transducer or plan on running one right away. My second question is about the MAP sensor. I am using a TBSS intake and the connector for the MAP sensor will not plug-in. The MAP sensor I have is 12594942. Do I need a different one or some sort of adapter? Thanks

Mine ran fine without the fuel pressure sensor hooked up,, far as I know it doesn't use it normally. I think/hope they have it in their long term plan to add it as a active sensor. I bought a inexpensive one and connected it so I could turn on a Alert on my Holley dash if the pressure dropped off. Did the same for trans pressure off my 4l65E's test port.

The supported map sensors are somewhere in the main manual. I am using the sensor in the Holley through the tube to run my engine but I'm running N/A. I have a L59 (07 flex fuel intake) and the MAP cable plugs in to it fine I just haven't tried using it.

OP, you can either re-pin a new connector for your current MAP, or Holley offers an adapter harness for LS3 style MAPs (bolt on), 558-416.

doubt that will ever be any kind of built in function, but you can use advanced tables to do whatever you want with it

Agree on all that. Fuel pressure input is not needed, but I would verify its correct via manual means. If NA use the onboard 1 Bar MAP, otherwise get the adapter mentioned.

I'm just starting to learn about the active tables.. My first step was get it running clean, (Stock motor) then start with some of the more technical edge on it..

Lot more to this than just swapping Pills in a mechanical system,,

Yup, can set up fuel pressure as a warning output as well. Things like coolant pressure too high or fuel or oil pressure too low can trigger safeties from a light on the dash or shutting the whole show down.
