Nice work! Definitely going to do that underhood lighting mod

 

yup im ordering some of those strips today..
good job preston.

 

Thanks guys, glad I could give you some ideas

 

Missed delivery of the Aeroforce gauge on Friday, so it's sitting in the post office till Monday

But I went and picked up the ZR1/LS9 3-bar MAP sensor and bolt:

Sensor: 12592525
Bolt: 11588714

Calibration data for the 3-bar MAP is:
Linear: 312.50 kPa
Offset: -11.25 kPa

*EDIT: Also ordered a Katech Delphi to Bosch adapter harness, P/N KAT-5185

 

Maybe I missed it, but why are you going with a 3bar? Do you really plan on 15+lbs of boost?

 

Not on this combination, I'm just trying to futureproof whatever I build next. Plus it was cheaper than the 2 bar for whatever reason.

 

Interesting....do you know if that sensor works on gen3 stuff?

 

It should. It works on LS1 ECUs with the right calibration, so I don't see why it wouldn't work on 5.3s and 6.0s.

You need an adapter harness (or make your own pigtail) if going from a Delphi to Bosch sensor though, the pinout changes. Factoring this in, it comes out to about the same price as a 2 bar Delphi.

 

My issue is I already have a 2bar, but may want more than 15lbs...

 

Sounds like it's time to step up to the 3 bar then.
