OMNI 3-bar MAP sensor scalings

UPDATE: For anyone else who may be looking for scalings for the OMNI 3-bar, here are the settings that ended up working:



And here is the correct Evoscan equation: 0.17886 * x + 0.161 - y
where y = your local atmospheric pressure (14.7 at sea level)



Original Post:

Hi all,

I recently realized that I have an OMNI 3-bar MAP sensor, not a JDM MAP sensor, so I need to adjust my MAP scalings. I've searched but didn't find anything, except that the OMNI's scalings were apparently within 1-2% of the GM 3-bar, but I can't find scalings for that one either.

Anyone have MAP Scaling values for the OMNI 3-bar MAP sensor? just to be clear I'm talking about this table:

Yes there is a 4-bar, but this is a 3-bar that I have.

3, 4 and 7-bar sensors are made by OMNI for the Evo.

Thanks anyway though.

Assuming you keep the right hand side the same as a 4 bar

Volts:

0.68
1.2
1.72
2.24
2.76
3.28
3.8
4.32
4.84

Values:

25
49
70
96
120
144
170
195
255

Assuming that the little test I did makes sense, those aren't correct.

What I did was take a known psig value (23) and plug it into the old evoscan formula I was using to get the raw output, which gave me 198.88. I then checked my MAP scalings (which are for a JDMMAP) to see what voltage outputs that number (4.093V). I then used that voltage along with your proposed scalings and got a new raw output of 185.18. When I used that in the correct 3-bar OMNI MAP sensor evoscan formula I got 18.75 psig.

I have Zeitronix's MAP sensor plugged into my ZT-2 w/ the LCD, and when I'm boosting 23 psig (according to my now-false JDMMAP formula) I would get around 22, not 18.75 psig on the ZT-2.

Is my math/logic correct?

If thats the case that means the 4 bar settings aren't correct. All I did was take 4/3rds of the volts value to come up with the new settings.

Funny enough since its a 5volt 3 bar sensor I suppose you could have used the JDM settings for it. Though just glancing at the two they look similar in scale as the ones I posted up to the 140 mark.

JDM Settings:
0.51 20
0.90 40
1.29 57
1.68 78
2.07 97
2.46 117
2.85 138
3.24 158
3.63 255

If we just wanted to math this out the original MDP sensor of 1 BAR 4.53 volts was equal to 80 units. Since a 3 bar sensor rises exactly 3x faster than a 1 bar sensor the equivalent voltage at 80 would have been 4.53/3.

Direct value conversion from stock would look like this.

Stock:
0.84 11
1.37 20
1.89 31
2.42 40
2.95 48
3.48 57
4.00 67
4.53 80
4.98 255

Modified:
0.28 11
0.42 20
0.63 31
0.81 40
0.98 48
1.16 57
1.33 67
1.51 80
1.66 255

Roadspike, I get what you're saying now. I'll try the first scalings you suggested. If they don't work I'll try VD's.

I'll report back tomorrow with which ones I end up using.

Thanks to both of you.

Briefly tried out the new scaling, looks pretty good so far but I had to let off early on my test pull because of overboost, I'll try another pull tonight after adjusting the WGDC table.

Looks like Roadspike's scaling's have done the trick. I'll update my OP with all relevent information for the OMNI 3-bar since it's not easy to find in other threads, should anyone else need them in the future

Thanks again Roadspike.

Did a lot of searching, found this and it helped me out. I noticed my boost gauge and what the logs were showing was off by a few psi and I started looking............

Wonder how many more of the OMNI 3 bar's are out there running on JDM data?

Dunno, but I suspect it's more than the number of people who are using OMNI 3-bar scalings judging by how little info there is about them on the forum.

Well let me back up...... It helped me out in knowing I don't have a JDM or OMNI MAP. After some digging the company I purchased from told me it's there brand (Honda's guys use them).

They sent me the voltage vs PSI/boost chart. How do I convert that over to our requirements?

thanks

Don't know how to do that, sorry! Surely someone on the forum will know.
