To start off I have a 2003 sunfire but I went out and got a new 2005 ecotec engine and am building it up with Eagle H-Beam connecting rods and a set of wiesco pistons with 8.9:1 compression. Also I am installing a turbo kit with a full front mount intercooler setup. Right now I also have a boost related fuel pressure regulator(which goes right into the place of the stock one) and 42lb fuel injectors. I also went out and got an AEM wideband o2 sensor.(which was highly recomended from you guys) I am hoping to run up to about 17psi for track and about 10psi to 12psi daily.
Ok I know this has probably been asked before but do I or should I get a 2 bar or 3 bar map sensor if I am planning on running hp tuners?
I know that with hp tuners I can fake a 2 or 3 bar setup but still would it just be better to get the actual 2 or 3 bar map sensor or is it not necessary or would it just be a waste of money and time?
If I should get the new map sensor were would I get one for a reasonable price and what is all needed for wiring one in or would it just plug right into my stock plug?
Thank you in advance for your help.

the map sensor that plugs into the stock spot is the one off of the gm s/c kit and i have seen it for around 200+ dollars, although i recall a thread were a guy was saying that he can get them for real cheap...

thats what i have, the msd 2312... its cheap and it works... any 5v sensor should...
as far as the faking a 2bar with hptuners... ummm, you cant just fake it without a 2bar map sensor... the "faking" is just unplugging a 1bar and pluging in a 2bar and rescaling all the hptuners tables that have to do with MAP to work with the new values/ranges that are sent to the ecu by the 5v 2bar map
sensor......

What did you call it when you went to pep boys for it?
Sorry if the question sounds dumb but some shops and parts places around here are idiots.

gm 3 pin weather connector
look at the shape it should look like the shape of the map sensor.... you might have to find the right pins and swap em out.... i got my pins from muarrys, so i cant help you there... you can call and ask them for the connector to a msd 2bar map sensor they can ship it out to you i think, 8 bucks with the pins
the only dumb questions are the ones you never ask.
good luck!

Ok thank you for some great help acer also where and how much would it be for a set of solid or neutral balanced shafts and also where do I go about getting stronger drive axles?
Project Yellow Blur Is Under Way ! ! ! ! !
i know that www.jbodyperformance.com sells some decent axels but their prices are high, look at those and maybe you could find the same ones for a lil cheaper or maybe some axels that are better than those just gotta do alot of research
