Message: [QUOTE="Rideracelivemx7, post: 956870, member: 305"] Moved from sea level to 3500 feet. Truck was a slug, smoked and didnt make any power. Fast forward to a cold day in the 20s and under it rips. i get it, cold dense air is going to effect these trucks or any boosted engine especially with some thin air. A day in the 40s its a slug again, wont even squeak tires if you smash the skinny. on a colder day its hard to keep them from spinning if you get on it a little too much. Now i talked to my tuner and he said the baro sensor should be pretty much maxed out to help with timing and burning fuel a little better, however a 15 degree temp changes and its a whole different truck. So i unplugged my baro sensor and no immediate differences as far as daily driving goes. From what i can see the truck seems to run much harder on a warmer day when you smash it but doesn't seem like its fueling as much. On a warmer day i usually need to keep it in a small tune because it just wont make any power on a hotter tune so i said hell with it ill unplug the baro and tried a hotter tune. I tried my GH street tune which is usually pretty mild up here and it surprised me by getting a little sideways. Assuming a BAD sensor, what does it do to the computer and what does the computer fault to when the sensor unplugged? I just want to make consistent power as long as i can while understanding if im on the right path or not. [/QUOTE]
