I've been to NJ. much better up there!

I accelerated to 3000rpm under nuetral gear.
There is no scan tool for the car.
If this car is not by LPE, what is the LPE mark on the engine?
Z industries might build the car with LPE engine!!!??
It's so complicated.

First at all, I think I have to find the right map sensor and see how's going on.
I've tried with 3 types of GM 1 bar map sensor, and 1types of MSD 3 bar map sensor. The 3 types of GM 1 bar map sensor has same problem.
Anyone knows which map sensor use for the car?
The Lingenfelter plate on the throttle body may mean that you have an LPE throttlebody, but that's it. It's really hard to say!

Your car uses the stock GM 1 bar map sensor. If you are revving the car in neutral to 3000rpm there is no load or boost, so it is probably not the map sensor that is wrong with your car.

The LPE Throttle body plate you have for you car is just a plate, anyone can buy it and install it on their car.
you have the old one, here is the new one:http://www.lingenfelter.com/Merchant...Category_Code=

Like I mentioned, the only way you can tell if your car is LPE is to check the internals. You can do so by pulling the oil pan.

There is no way LPE would build a Supercharged C4 with 10.2:1 CR and 26LB injectors.

If you do have a LPE motor, my guess is that someone slapped a procharger on it afterwards.

LPE never did offer a supercharged LT1 vette setup. They did have package such as head & cam combo or 383ci engine.

As side from that. The car is not a true LPE car. Any body can put LPE stickers on the engine bay or body panel. And you don't have a Vortech supercharger. You got a ATI Procharger with the D1SC head unit. With the 6rib serpentine drive belt, you are limited to a modest amount of boost. Trust me I have been there.
