Load Questions from a newbee

[Ward Spoonemore]

MAP is absolute pressure. this is important is you plan to drive up the hill
to a lower ambient pressure.
KPA is 105 Kpa = 30 In MAP or about 0 in vac.

As I understand it...for GMs anyway...load on a
MAP system is a pressure, measured in kPa by the
MAP sensor. Essentially the inverse of vaccuum.
Load on a MAF system is in grams/sec as measured
by the MAF sensor.

Hope that's correct and helpful. Looking at
some of the example software for editing tables
may give a better idea of how it's used. See
the website/ftp site for those.
