When using something like a MAF translator that allow using DSMLink's Ignore IAT/Baro feature, the ECU's baro sensor input can be used for some aftermarket sensor such as a MAP sensor or a wideband O2 sensor. However, the baro input of the 2G ECU may not be compatible with the aftermarket sensor. The 2G ECU has a 3.3K ohm pull-down resistor (R39). This may put more load on the sensor than it can tolerate and still put out a proper signal. For example, a GM 3-bar sensor can only drive this input to 1.76 volts at maximum pressure. The new Delphi sensor seems to have a bit lower output impedance and will drive the 2G baro input to a little higher voltage at maximum sensor pressure, but it's still unsuitable. | When using something like a MAF translator that allow using DSMLink's Ignore IAT/Baro feature, the ECU's baro sensor input can be used for some aftermarket sensor such as a MAP sensor or a wideband O2 sensor.
