4agze Map Based Fuel Cut

[RonRob]

I am curious to know what people are doing when they hit 15psi and fuel cut in their map based 4agze? Is there a simple fix to this or is there a need to get a fuel cut defenser? Would like to see how well the stock ecu holds up to about 20 psi with the twinscrew. I do have an aftermarket ecu, but I am having a few issues and would like to see what the stock ecu can do and if I will make it to redline with a new aftermarket knock sensor.

Thanks,
Ron

The Emanage Ultimate software 'says' that the 4AGZE MAP sensor reads to 7psi. So at 5 volts output it has 7psi of pressure on it.

I'd be putting your efforts toward sorting the aftermarket management out, rather than even trying to run that much boost on the factory system.

I was always lead to believe the gze sensor was a 2atm sensor I.e 14.xxxxpsi could be wrong but.

Again going by what the Emanage Ultimate lists, the 1-2JZGTE MAP sensors do read 14-ish psi.

ignore the emanage ultimate. The GZE sensor is a 2bar sensor.

The OP can either use a traditional cheap fuel cut defender circuit or a bleed valve on the map line. I've seen both used with success on MAP GZE ECU's.

[RonRob]

Bleeder valve sounds simple and easy, but will I not be loosing boost pressure or do I bleed the air to another vacuum line that is holding the boost.
Please advise

the setup I saw just bled excess boost off from the map sensor line, so the sensor basically never registered anything over 13/14psi. Was a turbosmart item from memory.

[RonRob]

Sounds easy enough, however it would seem as though you would need to bleed that boost to another line so that you do not have a boost leak and would therfore defeat the purpose of lets say boosting to 20 psi because its being bled to atmosphere.
