I know that people are mounting these above the throttle plates, but wont this just read boost. I thought that the map sensor is supposed to read vaccum to. Also could would someone be kind enough to send me the turbo/intercoolerbase map.

Thanks

PM sharkey....
as far as the turbo basemap, you choose the basemap based on your exhaust set up (2 to 2, 2 to 1), then in within the the Smartlink software window, you choose 'Configure', 'module settings' then nitrous or supercharger.

I know every turbo with the TM installed has to have the 2 BAR MAP sensor. I am not that schooled to answer your questions but there are quite a few trask owners here that have a TM installed.

Ya it is supposed vaccum and boost but being mounted above the throttle plates it will never read vacuum. so at idle it will not read as it is supposed to. right?

i am not saying that it is not going to work above the throttle bodies, i am just wondering if mounted were it will read vacuum and boost would it perform better because it is getting the correct info.

When I talked to (tec) @ Zippers the other day, he said the map sensor only reads boost and thats it.
