I loaded the custom PID's from Tugly's list. Thanks Rich. Finally got it working today and things seemed to be working ok except for the MAP reading. Mine shows a negative (-1.5 to -2) reading with KOEO and when at idle the same. If I remember correctly, at KOEO it should be reading atmospheric psi. and then slightly above at idle from turbo pressure and then should be reading turbo up to 20 psi. under full load. My MAP, will run up a bit if I throttle up but I haven't been able to test it to much yet. Is my thinking correct or am I all messed up?
I started a new thread on this just incase I'm having a problem and I need to look at fixing something.
At KOEO - it should read 0, as well as your Exhaust Back Pressure. If your EBP is 0 and your MAP is -1.5 to -2 without the engine "suckin' on the tube" (at idle), you have a problem. First step - verify that reading somehow. If the reading is real, I think I bought my MAP sensor for about $160 at the local dealership.
MAP and (plain) EBP should both read barometric pressure unless the formulas have been changed to subtract barometric pressure from the reading. Boost should read zero with KOEO. EBP Gauge should read zero KOEO. Maybe post the PIDs and formulas you're using for each one. It might be a typo causing some discrepancy.
I'm following this thread, mine does it too, -1.5 or so at idle, but a small positive number under no load cruising, I see it get into the mid and high teens depending on how hard I mash on it. I've never actually looked at it KOEO!
KOEO is what matters when dealing with low numbers. Idle is expected to show a negative number - the exhaust doesn't have enough back pressure to make enough boost to "outrun" the suction of the engine at idle.
I'll check it out then and keep an eye on John's result as well.
I drove the truck to work today because the weather is crappy and I'm too lazy to put the top up on the Jeep, so I'll run Torque on the way home and give it a chance to get itself up and running before I fire up.

If anyone needs a map sensor I still have my original one and have no use for it now. I was gonna list it on craigslist along with the other stuff I have but haven't gone through yet. I don't see a problem with the numbers I see here.
John2001, that's assume that you offered up your extra MAP sensor. Reps to u.
So, I had to droop back and punt on this issue. I totally screwed on this issue when I posted the first question. . When I finically got TP to stay hooked up and keep reading I totally over looked the fact that I didn't actually have a MAP sensor reading on my screen. What I was looking at and it wasn't making any sense to me at the time was the BOOST reading had a -1.5 to -2.00. I apologize for misleading everyone down the wrong path. I've gone back in and added the MAP sensor and it is reading 1/10 within my EBP sensor (12.9). Pretty sure that is correct while sitting out here on the beach of lake McConaughy Ne.
Thanks again to you guys who respond so quick the questions on the forum.
