year of car the sensor is being fitted to and the year of car the sensor came off will help us give you the correct info, also are you planning to have the car mapped to accommodate the sensor or just fit it and leave as is?

Hmm i got if from a Subaru impreza turbo at the scrappy, dont know the year but was the shape with the square front lights if that helps? sorry i didnt really pay attention :( hope any off that information helps, yeah im getting it mapped :) many thanks, lee

If it's a Subaru part Lee, it'll have a part number on it. Tell us what that is (should be a 10 digit alphanumeric code) and we can work out what model year it's from, and from that give you the pinout, maybe even a calibration curve, if you need one.

ok thanks will go look now and post it up :D

Scoobylover2829 21 July 2010 10:51 PM

Damm it :( on the back there is a silver sticker and most off the part number is worn off :( all i can read is 20 i think at the end, damm it :( any other way off finding it out? like testing with a multimeter or something? i have looked everywhere and joned 3 forums and i cant find anything :(

Splitpin 21 July 2010 10:53 PM

Post us up a picture of it! :D

my94wrx 21 July 2010 10:55 PM

if its got the silver /foil sticker on it, it sounds like its a early type map sensor.

Scoobylover2829 22 July 2010 10:43 AM

is there anyway i could test it with a multimeter or something?

my94wrx 22 July 2010 11:01 AM

that's the early 92/96 map sensor, as stated earlier in the thread you need to tell us the year of your car so we can give accurate information, without these minor details we cant really help you.

Scoobylover2829 22 July 2010 11:12 AM

hmm the car i got it off was from a scrappy so didnt really look lol :(, i think it was from a M reg not 100% though, thanks lee

i don't think you can grasp the question,WHAT YEAR IS YOUR CAR! the one that you want to fit the sensor too???

Scoobylover2829 22 July 2010 11:20 AM

im using the map sensor from the subaru to fit on my project car which is not a subaru, all i need to know is what wires are the 5v imput earth and sensor output :) thank you

ok lets start again, what year of suabru is the engine out of? if you dont know the anser what ecu are you running, if its standard tell me the large numbers off of the top of the ecu case, the reason i am asking is if you fit the wrong MAP sensor to wrong ecu and try to run any boost it will fook your engine up.

Scoobylover2829 22 July 2010 11:42 AM

sorry lol i didnt make it clear enough, im using it on a ford fiesta, which i have converted to turbo, im using a fiesta rs turbo ecu to run it all but i dont have a map sensor to sense boost, thats why im using a map sensor from the subaru, thats why i only need to know which wire is 5v imput earth and sensor output, hope this helps :D

right this does help although the map sensor you have is not the best one and will only allow you to run at approx 1.2 bar, this is the wiring to the map sensor that you have at the moment,

MY92-96 MAP sensor Wiring
=========================

Red = +12V
White = Sensor
Green = Gnd


hope this helps.
