Upgraded MAP sensor

I have a Whipple and do not have a map sensor that will register boost over 1 or so psi. I've been told not doesn't matter, I've also heard it does. Opinions or experience??

Not sure what MAP sensor you have, but when i did my Whipple I installed an LT4 MAP sensor.

Any time you add a supercharger you should install a map sensor that reads boost whether it be a ZL-1 map sensor or LT4 Map sensor.

In the Case of the Whipple the LT4 IAT/MAP also known as a T-MAP, sensor and appropriate jumper harness are the best option.

Your IAT gets moved from the MAF to the blower so your computer can track actual air intake temps at the intake port as well as extend your MAP harness to the back of the blower where the T-MAP is located.

So the harness jumps the MAF connector and MAP connector and will plug in at the T-MAP.
