The limit of your MAP sensor should be obvious if you follow the calibration advice in the help text for the "ECU calibrations dialog. What do you have?

Easy to change, sure. What's "easy" to you? It's just a couple of wires at the edge of the board, piece of cake.
Gunni should sort it out, if he has time to help you.

if the map sensor is too small for your use.  and you feel you can handle changing it out.  pop the end plates off and take a look its fairly easy to point out the map sensor in the ecu..  if you think you can remove it and install a bigger one, order one from webshop.

You will need to know the specification of the MAP sensor that you have - e.g. what it's maximum kpa reading is and what voltage that will be at, and if the output is linear.
