How do i upgrade my map sensor?

Post by superboost »

Hi guys! I have a mslabs ms2pnp for my (96-97 turbo miata) and it has only a 2.4bar map sensor in it. I want to upgrade it to a 3.5 or 4bar map sensor as i am going to be aiming for more boost in my car. So is upgrading the map sensor as simple as opening my ms2, desolder the old map sensor, solder new map sensor and then choose it from tunerstudio settings?
I see megasquirt users like the mapdaddy 4bar map sensor is this the one to go for?
Any recomendations for what type of map sensor to go for would be appreciated!

Any question on custom hardware should be directed at the hardware manufacturer because most people here have no idea what it is. So you should ask mslabs.

From what I understand it would be as easy as you indicated. The MAP sensor is an add onto the board so simply sway out with larger range. Best to inquire through the site and read docs.
