91 vette.. what should the map sensor read.
im just making sure everything is working properly, what range should the map sensor voltage be ?

Voltage?
My KPa readings are with stock cam (not you case)
idle in park or nutral: about 34 or 35 Kpa at 775rpm
idle in D with brake pedal on: about 43 or 44 Kpa at 675 rpm
At KOEO: 99,9 kpa
at WOT : up to 99,8 kpa

my scanner shows the map sensor voltage, not kpa. not sure how to convert..

The voltage should swing between 5V to .5V between full throttle to idle
(shooting from memory)

If you are supercharged the stock map will read up to 104 KPA but he above KPA and voltages are correct...

Never heard of kpa . What does it mean?

KPA is Kilopascals it is metric for pressure readings 100 Kilpascals =14.7 psi or atmosheric pressure
21" Hg = ~30 Kpa
18" Hg = ~40Kpa idle
15.5 " Hg = ~50 Kpa
10 " Hg = ~70 Kpa part acceleration
7" Hg = ~80 Kpa harder acceleration
4" Hg = ~90 Kpa vitrually wide open throttle
0" Hg = 100 Kpa WOT
" Hg is inches of mercury
Hope this helps...

Since you have a 91 (mine is a 90) you have an $8D code.
The $8D code outputs the MAP sensor ADC counts. This can be converted to a voltage by:
VOLTS = ADC * (5/255)
To convert from ADC counts to KPa I use:
KPa = ADC * 0.369 + 10.415
-or-
(KPa = ADC * 0,369 + 10,415)

I would replace it you are running a 150 shot of Nitrous!
With your mods you should be almost in the 10's It's a cheap part and easy to replace.
