Crapy idle and stalling on two different engines?... sound to me like a vacuum problem or bad map sensor.

Option B, get your reading from the turbocharger instead of the intake manifold. The problem with getting it from the intake is that your boost can spike getting on and off the gas. I beleive the stock boost is set at 7.5 psi.

I had one of them in my Civic. It lasted more than a week.... twice that actually.  :icon_biggrin: I losened the adjustment on it, since it was barely opening, and the diaphram inside broke. I bought a real Greddy Type S and it works flawless. I have seen the HKS knock off and they work ok. Good luck

   Hi guys. Any progress on the twin turbo set up? I will like to see that set up at work too. Now, about the 3 bar map swap, I have looked at it for a few days, checked few posts here and couple other sites and got lost. Doesn't remember were I have been anymore and end up reading the same posts over and over. It always looks like it's imposible, unless we run a stand alone or a heck of a program in the TGP. Not that it is a bad thing, but the options seems expensive for a 300hp project.
   So, if the 3 bar has the same power input (5 volts) as the 2 bar map and the voltage signal out of the 3 bar at the same boost level is lesser and by changing the 2 bar to a 3 bar we would basically decrease the voltage signal by 50%, why not increasing the injector size by 50% to compensate the difference in voltage? If we have #24 injectors, shouldn't a set of #36 work on a 3 bar with the stock fuel maps?
   It has work on Hondas for years now, people change the stock map to a 2 bar, double the injector size and run boost on the stock computer. I actually ordered a set of #36 EV1 injectors and a Delphi 3 bar map last night to try on my TGP, but if someone had tried this before and didn't work, please let me know so I can ebay this part before opening the pacakages.
