 **__RUNNING WITHOUT AN IAT SENSOR__:** You can run speed density reasonably well without an IAT sensor at all if you have to.  It is absolutely better to have one, no question about it.  But if you find yourself in the situation where you simply can't get an IAT sensor installed but you need to enable speed density operation anyway, go ahead. ​ Just make SURE you go into the Direct Access tab and zero out the **SDTempWeighting** table. ​ Doing so basically tells the ECU to ignore the IAT input when running SD. **__RUNNING WITHOUT AN IAT SENSOR__:** You can run speed density reasonably well without an IAT sensor at all if you have to.  It is absolutely better to have one, no question about it.  But if you find yourself in the situation where you simply can't get an IAT sensor installed but you need to enable speed density operation anyway, go ahead. ​ Just make SURE you go into the Direct Access tab and zero out the **SDTempWeighting** table. ​ Doing so basically tells the ECU to ignore the IAT input when running SD.

 You wire up a pressure sensor much like you wire up any other aftermarket sensor for logging. ​ The details of which can get complicated because there are several different inputs you can use and several different sensors. ​ So it's hard to write up a COMPLETE how-to on this. You wire up a pressure sensor much like you wire up any other aftermarket sensor for logging. ​ The details of which can get complicated because there are several different inputs you can use and several different sensors. ​ So it's hard to write up a COMPLETE how-to on this.

 ===== Using our GM MAF Cable ===== ===== Using our GM MAF Cable =====
 If you have our GM MAF cable already, GREAT! ​ You can use the breakout points provided on that cable to connect your MAP sensor and IAT sensor directly to the car's wiring harness. ​ Our [[gmmafiatbaro|GM MAF IAT/Baro page]] describes how to do this. If you have our GM MAF cable already, GREAT! ​ You can use the breakout points provided on that cable to connect your MAP sensor and IAT sensor directly to the car's wiring harness. ​ Our [[gmmafiatbaro|GM MAF IAT/Baro page]] describes how to do this.

 +===== Using our SD plug-n-play Cable =====
 +If you're using our SD plug-n-play cable with our IAT and 4-bar MAP sensors, then the IAT sensor will be connected to the IAT input and the OmniPower 4-bar MAP sensor will be connected to the baro input.

 Because you can connect your MAP sensor to any number of ECU inputs, you have to tell the ECU where it can find this sensor in order to use it for SD operation. ​ You do this on the ECU Inputs tab in the "Pin Assignments for ECMLink Functions (ECU-side)"​ area. Because you can connect your MAP sensor to any number of ECU inputs, you have to tell the ECU where it can find this sensor in order to use it for SD operation. ​ You do this on the ECU Inputs tab in the "Pin Assignments for ECMLink Functions (ECU-side)"​ area.

-**NOTE:** If you have a REALLY old version of V3Lite, then you'll find a checkbox on the SD tab labeled "​enable speed density"​ instead. ​ If that's the case, pleas consider [[v3firmwarehowto|upgrading your firmware]] because your V3Lite ECU is seriously outdated.+**NOTE:** If you have a REALLY old version of V3Lite, then you'll find a checkbox on the SD tab labeled "​enable speed density"​ instead. ​ If that's the case, please ​consider [[v3firmwarehowto|upgrading your firmware]] because your V3Lite ECU is seriously outdated.
