Map sensor Q

I've a Version 2 Sti, I believe that it has the 1.2 bar map sensor, this means I can boost to 1.1 bar. Is this correct?

Have all pre 96 WRXs and STIs got the 1.2 bar map sensor or is there any exceptions?

Cheers!

Yep, all the same. They use the earlier map sensor that 'in theory' max's out at 2.3 bar (absolute). But in reality it's about 2.2 bar (absolute), 1.2 Bar Boost pressure.

1997 saw the later 3 bar (absolute) map sensor fitted.
