I have no clue exactly what it does, but installed on a boosted D16 motor it made a night and day diffrence in the way the car runs. I was told that it tricks the stock MAP sensor...but I know you Honda boys could explain it better...so Please....enlighten me...

from what i see it looks like a 1-way check valve on steroids. The check light comes on when the map sensor sees boost, so the missing link prevents it from ever seeing boost., but still allows it to read vacuum normally.

^^ perfect.

side note the map sensor picks the fuel map (more or less) so when its erratic the cars runs horrible.

Jesse yuh talk to me yesterday, yuh couldnt ask meh???

Nick as for your question, yuh talk to meh Friday, yuh couldnt ask meh??

:mrgreen:

the missing link is a one way check valve that bleeds off boost to equalize pressure in the manifold, so the MAP only sees vaccum. It's not the best solution, but it's a high quality valve (not like the fish tank kind you can build... but you need 4-5 of those and it looks like arse).

So what's going on ? are you running an FMU setup ?

^^ you need 3 not 4-5.. and if you know where to put it it can hide... :wink:

THE MAP SENSOR WORKS ON VACCUM. AT HIGH BOOST THE PRESSURE GOES POSITIVE IN THE MANIFOLD AND THE SENSOR TELLS THE ECU SOMETHING IS WRONG AND THE ECU GOES INTO A DEFAULT MODE OR MALFUNCTIONS.
THE MISSING LINK IS A SERIES OF CHECK VALVES (ENCLOSED WITHIN A UNIT) WHICH IS PLACED BETWEEN THE MANIFOLD AND MAP SENSOR.THIS ENSURES THE MAP SENSOR NEVER SEES A POSITIVE PRESSURE.
WE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM WHEN MY FRIEND TURBO HIS 1600 SUZUKI BALENO.THE THREE FISH TANK CHECK VALVES WE USED COST $15.00 A PIECE AND WAS NICELY CONCEALED. NEEDLESS TO SAY THE CAR NOW FUNCTIONS PERFECTLY.
