Default 2bar or 3bar map sensor? how much and where to get them?

Okay I am putting together a rhb5 turbo kit for my dohc zc and I knwo that you can only boost like below 10psi on the stock map sensor. so I'm looking to beable to run like 12-15psi on my little rhb5 with race gas on weekends or when someone shoots there mouth off. how much does the 2bar sensor cost and will it work with turboedit 2.0?

Also....

where can I get flanges at ? e.g. rhb5 exhuast house flange. I know I can have them made locally by a machine shop but they'll jack me on price.

and what aobut an exhaust flange for my zc ? so I can make my own log manifold?

thanks

I wouldnt get to excited going over 12psi with all stock internals, stick with the stock map sensor for now. I beleive the FAQ has the part#'s to the GM map sensors for 2/3bar, or maybe its in the EM faq.

ZC head flange is the same thing as a d16 head flange, just needs to be ported out a little bit. At one time we had a guy on here selling head flanges for d-seres for like 25 bucks, I think BMC still sells them?

Here are some IHI Flanges,

Good luck,

uhmm nope....think that 12 psi on that turbo is more then 5 on a super 60.
At 5 psi the Super 60 hasn't reached it's full efficiency yet
