The GFB G Force II can be found on Rallysport Direct.

The 3 BAR map sensor was included with the AVO kit, but you can snag one on Ebay for around $90-$120. Look for 3 BAR OMNI MAP sensor for 06+ S2000.

The 4bar map sensor i saw was about $117 before shipping. Worth buying?

This one has been discussed before. You will get verying opinions on the three options. Some people swear by each solution. I am running the GFB G-Force II EBC and a 3 bar Omni Power MAP sensor. I don't see myself ever running over 29 psi, so the 3 bar is fine.

That should work. Just remember your ROM needs to be setup for that MAP sensor, so make sure you have one from your tuner before you install it.

Does the stage 1 base kit come with an upgraded map sensor or no? So before putting a 3bar map sensor, i'd have to contact LJ and ask for a ROM for this map sensor?

can you save maps in the GFB EBC for a specific boost level? lets say in the morning i wanna run 9psi and then in the afternoon i wanna run 14psi.

Base kit AFAIK, does not upgrade MAP sensor. Yes, you'd contact LJ and he send you the map with that MAP sensor calibrated.

As far as I am aware none of the Full Blown kits have come with upgraded MAP sensors. This is one of the critisisms of his kit by some fired up tuners. I am pretty sure @FullBlown can get you a basemap for a 3 bar MAP sensor though.

Yes. That is one of the main advantages of a simple EBC. The G-Force II has 6 presets that can each have different duty cycle, gain, and sensativity settings. You can swap through them with a single press of a button on the controller.

FullBlown · 08-21-2013, 11:01 AM

Yes we can supply the map for a 3 bar. We use other methods to set a boost cut without a map sensor.

So is the main reason for a 3 bar or anything over stock just for boost cut protection? Like would it make tuning it easier or more accurate?
I've got a Full Blown MBC on my car it's nice cause its black and hides well in the bay.

It doesn't really make tuning any easier. The car does use the MAP sensor for some correctons, but really it is so the tuner/user can datalog and know what boost level was being run at the time.
