Project, 5th Gen Map Sensor

[mushroom_toy]

Hihi everyone. Well to start off with I know the map sensor thing is kinda played out but oh well lol. Anyway I was wondering well since the 4g map sensor tricks the computer such and you can feel a gain, then the 5th gen map sensor should as well maybe even a little more. I couldnt find anything about it on the forums when I searched so sorry if it has been done before. Comparing the two: 5g top, 4g bottom




I have decided to start a new project involving more than just the 5th gen map sensor, but some ideas must remain secret for now! If i get to make a stop at the jy tomorrow, the project will most likely be done by Sunday morning. Maybe the 5g map will give even more power/rape my mpg. Wonders if anyone has tried it yet?

Are you going to try the 5th gen TPS and distributor, or whatever the new accord uses also?

[mushroom_toy]

^Nothing that extreme just yet, but everyone should see when I get back from the jy today.

Well its time to show the secret. kind of a crappy secret but oh well. Here is my idea and what it looks like. I made a harness to plug into original map sensor harness, and any of the 3 map sensors can be used (one at a time of course.) The car runs on each map sensor, and driving test will be done tonight. I will be making a switch later on to add to the harness, so I can switch between the three map sensors. Cheers.





With 4th and 5th gen map sensors attached. (3rd gen is on car.) Of course you wouldnt run all three or 2 sensors at the same time.


Will let you guys know more about the 5th gen map sensor later tonight.

lol i was thinking of something like that haha, are you gonna have all 3 vacuum lines in the manifold at the same time? you should try running all 3 at the same time =P

This is an interesting idea. Keep us posted on this. I'm more curious about the 5G map sensor and if it adds a noticable difference. I'm going to be listing something up for sale that you might be interested in. So keep an eye out for a post that I'll be putting up in just a few minutes.

I posted on it./

Dont think I'll run all three lol. Something bad might happen. But when I get to it I'll have them switched with 3 vac. lines running to all and just switch them for track use/other.

On a note about the 5th gen map sensor. I did feel a power increase but not as much gain as when I switched to the 4g. The 5g feels like it added more torque to be honest. My wheels almost started to spin in an auto...in d4, never had that happen before. All in all it was worth it for free. It feels like it might have boosted the power up a little form the 4g. And my harness works perfectly and does exactly what it is supposed to do. I just plug one in and play!

i already Dynoed this mod.

[A18A]

even the 5th gen map sensor? i remember seeing the 4th gen one but not the 5th gen one

I'm not surprised you unlocked the low end potential of the A20


No one ever believes me but you can spin tires in the auto, with carbed motor, reguardless if carbs need pressure or not, if you add a Dial IN pressure regulator. Only downfall is a short life span because the fuel supply will lock up on you later on and then drain the fuel bowl, but till then enjoy the power. I stand by my statement though, because I've tested it 3 times with two of same reg. I have 2 because I thought the first one was defective.
Only later to find on an RX-7 forum someone had the same results.

sadly if the defect is what causes the bump in performance then it'll mean other regulators that don't lock up wont work

Thought you only dynoed the 4th gen sensor.

Indeed was fun, although they didnt spin but I could feel the tires slipping a bit.

yeah just the 4th gen.



didnt all 90-97 accords come with the same engine the f22.

[mushroom_toy]

Dont know. Anyway I took it out of a 5th gen accord, and its diff. Even if the engine is the same the map sensor is different.

[coope]

wow nice give us a how to on this

[hanginbyaccord]

How To Please!

[LX-incredible]

didnt all 90-97 accords come with the same engine the f22.

Yes, but the later models were OBD II.

[mushroom_toy]

I'll do a how to tomorrow...im tired!

maybe because its like OBD1 stuff.

[mushroom_toy]

^guess so. Its a lot smaller than the 3g and 4g ones, i like it better lol.

this works,the problem is the fuel pump sucks. thats why you run out of fuel. you need the holley low pressure regulator for this to work correctly. 2-5 psi. i run 3 psi. i am putting in a walbro underbdy pump with more fuel flow capability to solve this problem.

I don't have FI but why does the different map sensors give power increases??
