You need to use the .inc file

; Steinhart-Hart coefficients: A= 1.505975E-03 B=2.249965E-04 C= 1.247472E-07

Sorry, typo; that's what I've been using/showing.
Very odd. Your file has different values. I can only assume that my file at home has the same as yours then.
It looks like DIY's most recent software package includes a different/new matfactor.inc.

The correct ones? See post 69.
CJ, don't be rediculous. We did all the hard work, and anyone w/ a mspnp w/ a 2.5bar sensor can simply copy the settings listed.
And I *think* I've got the 4 bar map settings, but it's too hard to drive and check in boost, especially because it's wet out. I'll post the new settings as soon as I can verify.

Pretty badass you guys got it working.

I originally posted the values I have been using on my palm since the thread began. Ben wanted to get MAP values for using his 4-bar sensor, where mine is the standard 2.5-bar. While going through that ordeal, he proposed updated settings for the 2.5-bar MAP sensor. Somebody asked about my CLT values, and while double-checking them, I downloaded the MSPNP software bundle to check out the .inc files, where the AIR values were much different. The original matfactor.inc file matches what I originally posted, however.
I'm still not sure why, if you go to the megasquirtpnp.com site right now and download the software bundle, the matfactor.inc file is different than what came bundled with my MSPNP (for w/o AFM). That's the summary.

So I'm not crazy! Thanks for relieving me of my self-doubting 
I think I'm going to go ahead and replace my matfactor.inc file and switch values on the PalmLog.

Correct MAP sensor values for PalmLog:
2.5 bar, standard MS sensor, included in 90-93 PNP
Scale: .964
Offset: 9.108
4.0 bar, upgrade sensor for MS and 90-93 PNP, included in 94-95 PNP
Scale: 1.62
Offset: 4
The 2.5 bar settings above will be the default settings in the next version of PalmLog.

Is there ever going to be a new version? I'd love to see development continue

Yeah, I guess, Maybe, I dunno 
Kind of cool to know that everyone who runs PalmLog benefits from my work.
