So this is what I got. Map: koeo/14 psi, idle/15ish, 2500 rpm 17psi. BARO: koeo/14.2psi, idle 14.2psi 2500 rpm/14.5. EBP: koeo/0 psi, idle 1-2 psi, 2500 rpm/ 2-4 psi. This is all in neutral in my drive way. Would this ebp have any odd effect on the throttle pedal though where there's no reaction an inch into the pedal
Just got back to maine from connecticut and I noticed that the ebp sensor when just driving will stay around 2psi but if I hammer on it it will be in th 18-20 psi range. Would different exhausts show different values? I'm still thinking the sensor or pipe is junked but would a large straight exhaust show a lower psi than a stock one?
I don't mean to be rude, but if the EBP sensor isn't even registering atmospheric pressure (14.7 psig at sea level) before you even start the truck (ie KeyOnEngineOff), you have an issue with it. That is assuming you have the gauge working properly. That is why you look at EBP, MAP, and BARO (barometer) all at KOEO and see if they are all reading the same (and the reading is close to atmospheric pressure). I don't know if you can even do this, but if your EBP sensor is set up to display "gauge pressure" instead of absolute pressure (gauge pressure is just the absolute pressure minus the atmospheric pressure), then your readings sound about right.
What would the transmission have to do with the EBP reading at 0 psi at KOEO and -2 psi at idle? Again, I don't mean to be rude, but the obvious issue must be addressed first.
Oh I agree there is some problem with the ebp sensor my last stated question was based purely on what would a normal reading look like and does exhaust type have an effect on the readings. As far as the guage goes its being read off of my edge cs tuner so I'm not sure if it minuses the absolute pressure. As far as transmission goes I agree with bismic but this is on a standard transmission.

Reason: spelling
ebp map nad baro are all pressure sensors and are all check aginst each other at koeo ONLY. baro is the only one that will stay stable 100% of the time once the truck is running.
for example boost (mgp) is a calculate formula. based on the readings. once ebp or map is off all drivability will be effected ( minus 03my)
My MAP is 12-13 KOEO, BARO 12.5 at all times, EBP 0 KOEO. MAP at idle is 13, EBP is 2 at idle, the only difference is I am not experiencing any problems, my truck is running just fine and no codes.

Going to give you some Credit here Since your close to being on the right track
Answer to the question in RED above is Yes it Will have Lower EBP with 4 inch straight Pipe But only when Running and probably Not Much
Your Problem is you Have a BAD EBP Reading at KOEO (Key On Engine Off) AT this Time/Condition the EBP SHould/Needs to be same as BARO yours is NOT
Remember Baro sets the Baseline for all pressure sensors so this Includes EBP and MAP as these are just pressure sensors
Benny - according to Mustang 309, the Edge gauge may be reporting the EBP value in different units (ie psig instead of psia) than the MAP and Baro. This is his first task - to confirm that or to disprove it. If the gauge is reporting the value as psig then it is correct for it to be 14.7 (or thereabouts) less than the other readings. Even so, it shouldn't go negative at idle. At a minimum (after confirming the actual "units" of the reading), he should pull the sensor and clean it and the tube.
Also - livinlots26 - your readings are going to be 2 psi less than mustang 309's just due to the altitude difference between Utah and wherever your home location is at (based on baro readings).
I will give Edge products a call today and see if I can get a concrete answer to this question. If the EBP reading were that far out of range assuming that it is not reading correctly would it set a DTC? Also I am at about 4900 ft above sea level and I believe that you lose about .5 PSI per 1000 feet of increase in elevation.
