2bar MAP from GN

Can you use a 2bar MAP that was on a GN? I will be using DFI to run the blown engine I'm building, and would like a 2bar MAP to use. I would think i'd be able to use it, but i'm not positive. Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks!


EDIT - forget to specify - GN = Grand National. Sorry about that!

I'm not usre about the GN because the map for that is only used for the boost indicator in the dash, and not for any ecm calculation. Now the SY/TY map or a turbo Sunbird one will work.

Yes you are right.My brother bought a ProM.I think he paid $199 for a 75mm.Sensors are expensive,no doubt about that.Ahh,fuel injection,saves money on gas but,gets you in the initial expense.
