Evoscan formula for GM 3 bar MAP

Hey Guys,

Does anyone have an accurate formula for EvoScan?

Currently I have "0.175934*x - 14.5"

Any other GM 3bars confirm?

Cheers

I have a closer number 0.17573 - I think its correct, from the manual:

240kPa is 3.884volts

THUS:
(3.884/5)*255 = 198.084
198.084 * 0.17573 = 34.80930132psi

In Google:
240 kilopascals in psi = 34.8090571psi.

This also works for my zero-psi reading ie:

evoscan logs 82 as engine off pressure
82 * 0.17573 = 14.40986psi
Which is about correct for my altitude (300ft above sea level)

hrmm so the only thing that is bugging me is that my bone stock IX seems to be getting good boost:

bit better graph for #1


So yes it does drop from 19psi to 15/16psi, but i don't see the regular "taper" just a drop at about 4500rpm.

any ideas? obviously I will tune this out, but the main aim is to ensure my GM 3bar map is accurate.

I have the voltage listing for the JDM MAP and a GM 3 bar somewhere but I will have to look for them. Sorry I didnt see this earlier and I cant believe no one else jumped in...geesh guys. I will send it to as soon as I find it Dave.

To be clear you are just looking for the pressure to voltage conversion or the scaling for the ECU MAP check?

Here is the quick teaser:

I will see if I cant find all my hard copy paper research tonight. I have it all written out when I was trying to figure out stock ECU speed density with a different MAP sensor, but I am not sure where I put it after I abandoned that project.

Thanks John,

Yah basically, I have the gm3port spec.pdf that is floating around, unforunatley below 70kpa and above 240kpa the relationship between volts and pressure changes.

But that's ok because I don't plan on doing anything on the above two conditions.

I am pretty sure I have the "conversion" (volts to pressure) formula correct now, but wanted to bounce it off other ppl

Cheers

Now that I thoroughly reread the post and looked at the pix, I would set the correction value to what it should be assuming perfect sea level. I would then adjust the stationary pressure value to compensate for any altitude. I apologise for being a little obtuse earlier.
