Hellafabrication Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 I am planning to use one of the Bosch 3.5Bar Map sensors that also reads the IAT (link below) on my Toyota 1jz. Right now I am building a large plenum intake manifold and Im wondering what the optimal placement for this sensor would be.Just after the throttle body, mid plenum, inline with one of the runners, etc. Here is a photo of the lower intake manifold and a shot showing the throttle body location and a scrap piece of pipe to give a general idea of my plenum shape. https://www.bmotorsports.com/shop/product_info.php/cPath/129_143/products_id/1772?osCsid=fmlhii32s64a5c6d7b07jh4e93 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 I would say just after the throttle, but there will be much more experienced tuners out there that might jump on and advise.Avoid having it at a low point as this can allow fluid to collect in the sensor / hose.

Hellafabrication Posted August 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 solid advice. I was considering putting it in the bottom of the manifold for aesthetics but I didn't consider condensation/fluids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellafabrication Posted October 11, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2017 just following up: I bought the 3bar version of the bosch TMap and I have a question about the calibration... I bought it from Ballenger Motorsports and they have the data sheet: https://www.bmotorsports.com/shop/product_info.php/products_id/1721 Can I use the MoTeC Calibration? http://www.motec.com/filedownload.php/?docid=5134 Does this temperature or pressure fit into any of the LINK defined calibrations? Im not entirely sure how to read the sensor data on the Ballenger website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted October 11, 2017 Report Share Posted October 11, 2017 If its for the same sensor then yes. No problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted October 11, 2017 Report Share Posted October 11, 2017 Temp sensor calibration matches our predefined "Std Bosch NTC". Map sensor cal matches our predefined "Bosch 3.0Bar (300KPa @ 4.65V) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
