what mods are needed, if any to fit a 5 bar ?

 

Remap

 

so no wiring mods ? just a new chip/remap

 

The bosch sensor has built in temp sensor and has 4 pin connector but they make an adapter cable to convert to 3 pin minitimer try Reyland.

 

cheers mate, its reyland im gonna get it from so will ask the question to them when i ring.

 

Although the fact you are asking about a 5bar and dont know what's involved...is rather worrying.

Is anything else in your setup built to make use of such boost that you feel the need for such a sensor ?

And the Bosch is usually 4 bar ?

 

4.6 Bar

 

Just wanted to ask the question before i ring reyland tomorrow. you dont need to worry about me mate, why come on to bash my post if your not going the help.

Its people like you that piss me off on here.

Just for you information its a well speced car running the same spec as the reyland focos. and it says 5 bar on the reyland website

 

Does that mean you could run a poss 60 psi ?

 

5 bar is typically 4 bar positive pressure. So as close as 60psi as it gets.

That's a lotta boost !!

 

Wiring mods yes, forget temp sensor. This new version fits 2 trucks 1 with temp the other without,the key is the lead.

 

its obviously needed or else he wouldent waste martins time at reyland with a phonecall and the added cost of buying the fucker

 

Then why does he need to ask here how to fit the damn thing ?

 

I have a 5 bar on my l8 - mapped by nms...

2.5 bar

 

As do I

 

I didn't ask how to fit it. I asked if any mods where needed to fit one
And I get a bellend like you jumping all over it.
if your not posting anythink helpful don't post at all

 

wiring it is no different to a normal map sensor....

1 wire is 0v
1 wire is 5v
1 wire is signal between 0-5v

simple really as imatrukas said its a temp sensor as well so that would also give you 1 wire for the temp signal.

as on a cossie pressure and temp take a common 0v from pin 11 i guess there is no reason why you couldn't use this sensor in your plenum to do away with the 3 bar and the manifold absolute temp sensor - guess it would depend on scope and spec of the temp range as its for a truck LOL...

 

With respect, it isnt the same, as the power supply pins are reversed.

If you just plug ia 5 bar sensor into the standard loom, it will destroy the sensor at worst or at best just age it significantly.

The sensor is originally from a diesel truck and as diesels dont generate any significant vacuum, these sensors are highly inaccurate in vacuum readings to a point that it cannot read below negative 0.5 bar so attention to detail must be paid in idle mapping and closed loop control.

 

the plug dont fit either simon - lol but again all the wires are there lol which was my point - doesn't need rewiring....

How can the power pins be reversed as you have :-

Sensor
Cossie loom

Surely you connect the correct pins from the cossie ecu to the sensor....or have i missed somert here...

 

i brought the metal housing block that reyland supply for mine to fit in as didnt want to remove the plemum to drill it into like some have done.. reylands block then fits onto the original map sensor bracket..

also my secs monitor now reads the wrong boost ... ive asked before and dont thing this can be fixed..
