Frankly, I question the capabilities of your tuner if they couldn't get it to work with the correct sensor, and then proceeded to use a non-spec sensor in its place and sent you off on your merry way. That's not cool. Who is this tuner? I'm not saying it can't be done, but when the kit manufacturer tells you not to do it, I'd listen to them. If anything goes wrong with your kit down the road, be it related to the wrong sensor or not, Vortech now has it on record that you've performed an incorrect installation procedure against their strong urging not to.

Thank you guys.
EFI Logics, CT. They are one of the best.
I think they tune it in a hurry at night because the tuner had a travel plan the next day. He will come back next Monday. And they use the factory sensor because they thought that I need this car this weekend.
It is my daily drive car and I also have track days at Sept. 6th and in Nov. at NJMP. So reliability is my top concern. As the tuner said in previous emails, even themselves recommended 3 bar one(or 2.5). So I think it doesn't make sense if factory one is good enough but everyone including the tuner and Vortech told me that I need a 2.5 bar or 3 bar MAP. I use most reliable parts on my car, and I dont want to cut the corner to use the factory MAP even if it might be just ok.
I will wait till Monday and require a tune with the 3 bar MAP on the car. My concern is that at that time if they told me that the factory MAP is not maxed out and should be fine. I dont know who I am going to trust. Vortech said they are "not sure", but strongly not recommend factory sensor. I would do the same thing if I were the manufacture and is I were not sure about something that might have potential issue. However, it does not means that the factory sensor is not ok because Vortech did not test them. And EFI Logics, I have never hear about anything bad about them.
