A MAP sensor would be useful with an aftermarket ECU and forced induction... layering a fuel compensation table (based on boost pressure) on top of an alpha-n base map. RB's use this technique.
Well, E46 CSLs use a vacuum rail along the ITBs. But it makes sense. Has anyone tried on our platform?

No shortage of people happy with their Alpha N tunes here it seems, I'm just curious. And trying to pass time while I wait for my tune from TTFS.
