    I know this is likely a dumb question but... 2.5 bar e38 map?

    I swapped a while back to the 2.5 bar os on my g8 running an lsa s/c no maf sd mode...

    default ve table was 175 kpa=10 psi with that according to hp, but im running 13 psi so I adjusted ve map scale to reflect 210kpa however the scanner never reads above 115 at full boost with the scaling matched to the editor ve table...what am I doing wrong here? I did verify the car is reaching 13 psi stable also

    and the car is using a properly scaled zr1 map sensor as well, tune is attached

    Could you post a log as well? Not sure it matters on the OS you have applied but I'd probably add the same settings for the map under sc/tc and see what happens.

    You most likely just need to click on a different map to reference in the scanner. The supercharger inlet map settings shouldn't affect it, but I could be wrong?

    I have no idea...I'm sure it doesn't matter one bit, but my simpleton brain would just make them match and test

    On a side note - if that VE table is correct - you might want to check and see if your belt is slipping from boost dropping slightly in the logs... These blowers typically deliver the same airflow pattern both in the high and low rpm areas.

    Hey It may be what's wrong for all I know - you never can tell anymore...

    I'll run out and log right now guys , I just wasn't sure if changing the ve axis to that higher then 175 kpa would be right , it is copied in my scanner already same as the editor table exactly. its far from right currently ,But I wanted to make sure this is the proper way to do it before I get too off the path...

    I just cant understand why its not reading on the scanner past 115kpa according to the math that would mean its only boosting to 2 psi? ...yet on the gauge its 13 psi , I even swapped gauges to make sure I wasnt losing my damn mind lol ...


    we dont have an inlet psi sensor Ghuggins ...only a single map on the g8 which in my case is the zl1 map in the lid same as a normal zl1 ..Im starting to however wonder if the ecu is even seeing positive psi now ...at 13psi Id expect to be populating cells deep into the 175 range

    It's most likely just the map your using in the scanner - I know some people had this issue in the past - I always just log Intake Manifold Absolute Pressure (SAE) - always works for me then I convert that to boost using a math parameter...

    Depending on your altitude that should be a minimum of 150ish kpa...
