I am in the same boat here.. Did you track one down at all? I can find info on Omni and Perrin.. And not really much else
I ended up getting this OMNI power 4 bar MAP from amazon: http://www.amazon.com/OMNI-Power-Subaru-Plug-Play-Sensor/dp/B006ID0U6M But since you have an 08+ wrx it will not work for you. You need this one that Ben found: http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2310334 You can probably find it on amazon if you search the part number
That looks like the ticket; thanks! Just curious, were you throwing the P0108 code that made you explore a bigger MAP Sensor? Or just due to knowing the limitations of a stock MAP?
Oh no I wasn't getting a code, I was just maxing out at 22.2 psi every time I would floor it in 4th or 5th so there was no overboost protection. Who knows how high it actually spiked because the 2.5 bar stock MAP can't read any higher. 4 Bar sensor can read up to ~40psi so should have some headroom now and protection against overboosting. What is your peak boost?
24psi is peak boost I was overtaking a semi so a wot from 4th the first time it happened a few weeks ago. So, who is to say that wasnt the issue for the CEL. Nuke said that my tune is sort of capped by the MAP, but he deleted the fuel cut once code was thrown. Looks like adding the OMNI to the parts list for when the power mods go on
Oh wow, 24psi from the stock turbo? Does your map actually read up that high? It is an absolute pressure sensor so it depends on ambient pressure but seems like mine wouldnt go higher than 22.2 psi. What are the power mods you are thinking of? Still on the stock 5 speed? haha
Would just be going with a FMIC and larger turbo. (nothing too extreme) Maybe injectors if there is need for it.. But I have modified ones from NF 930cc which should be okay for my end goals. And yes, still on the stock 5 speed. My driving style doesn't yet warranty anything to over the top. I have launched 1 car, 1 time.. And that was 3 wrxs ago.
Yikes! we shall see how the tranny likes that! With 24psi you are probably well over 350 ft-lbs...even without launching I would be scared for 3rd gear. (cough cough) 6 speed (cough)
Yea yea.. Some day, in a galaxy full o' money. If I can find a deal on a 6speed, it could happen, eventually.
