    Are my MAP values too low?

    I have not really paid much attention to them, but I noticed that I'm reading 40 kpa whne I'm at WOT. I was reading a thread that said those values should be in the upper 90's at WOT. What could this be an indication of?
    I've attached my latest scan and tune.

    Really weird update. I just took a screenshot of the chart and table vie side by side, and the values in the table view are correct, but in the chart view, are not.

    Yeah something is wrong with your MAP. My MAP values are typically 98-101 at WOT

    There is nothing wrong with the map sensor. Delete your boost pid, and the chart & histograms will display properly.

    What would explain why at WOT it reads correctly sometimes? I didn't get a chance to look in more detail.

    I did update the Chart settings, but now I noticed that it does not read above 40 kps an the histograms.

    I'm having the same problem, the histogram is reading half of what the table data says it is, the sensor reads 40kpa, and the pid(map sae) is reading correctly, let me know if you had any luck, i am going to try to delete the boost pid in the am.

    wait ....... how do you delete the boost pid?, i figured out i had a bad user pid that it was looking at, instead of the "hptuners" MAP SAE". why does the sensor itself read half of what the pid reads?

    It doesn't have to be perfect, it just needs to be done in two weeks...
