do i need a map sensor?
I am in the middle of a rebuild. During the rebuild the engine was ported and 3mm seals and springs were used. I have all bolt ons as im im getting EMS. Eventually i will be going single turbo...i know i will need at least a 3 bar then but do i need one now or should i just wait. I plan on only running about 5-7 psi during the break in period. What do you guys think?

you should run no boost during the break in period at all and not exceed 3000 rpm for a while then step up to 4k and 5k etc then after 1000 miles start going 2-3psi and low rpms etc...work your way up slowly.
Kai was right 1.15 is the highest the stock can read. when you put a single turbo on Id get it then. right now it would be more of a headache and something else may go wrong. youll need a tune as well like you mentioned make sure the a/f is ok

Do you think i will need a tune right away during the break in period, or would it be okay to run it with a base map just until the break in is over?
