I can only imagine how confused the PCM must get without a correct rescale, considering the t-MAP calibration is one of the most important in the ford PCM. A 3.5 bosch t-MAP on reads down to -15 inHG at sea level iirc so I'd be sticking with a 3bar as they go down to -24 inHG. Anyway not starting a $hitfight but I reckon a ford engineer would cringe at the thought of this!

joe@cms Member 129 Member For: 15y 9m 30d Gender: Male Posted 07/10/12 10:03 AM Share Posted 07/10/12 10:03 AM intresting & yes the ford engineer would be pulling his hair out, but when I was told that I cant do the same on a AU s11 with the std map cuting boost out at 3 psi then worked out the scaling at the point that I wanted to see, was then able to use the SCT software to provide upto 14psi boost not that I wanted it & it provided acuate fuel & spark from logging, well to say I was happy that It could be done was an understatment, but now days what we do is wire up an Bseries map if we need to go further, I'm just a mechanic that's inquisitive & makes mistakes like everyone else..

How does one get around the Canbus issues running and after market ECU in a BA falcon?
