this map is intake manifold absolute pressure map?

Looking at the data in your screenshot, no, this is most likely not an intake manifold absolute pressure (MAP) map.

Here's why:

  • The values start at 600 in the lower load/RPM area and scale up to 25000+ at high load/RPM. These values are far too large to represent manifold pressure directly (MAP is typically 0–2550 mbar or 0–255 kPa in most ECUs).
  • The pattern — low values at idle/low load, increasing progressively with both RPM (columns) and load (rows) — is more characteristic of a fuel injection quantity or torque/load request map.

This looks more like one of the following:

  • Desired injection quantity map (mg/stroke or mm³/stroke) — very common in diesel ECUs
  • Driver demand / torque request map
  • Airflow or charge target map (if gasoline)

To help you identify it precisely, could you share:

  • ECU type (Bosch EDC17, MED17, Siemens, Delphi, etc.)?
  • Vehicle make/model/engine/year?
  • Which tuning software are you using (WinOLS, ECM Titanium, etc.)?
  • The map address or label name if available?

With that info I can tell you exactly which map this is.

x y not converted

If your X/Y are all “raw coordinates/not converted” (not converted), that also happens to explain why the values don’t look like MAP: many ECUs’ scaling requires conversion using calibration parameters (for example, converting the row/column coordinates from raw to kPa/mbar, or applying a linear/nonlinear conversion afterward).

But based only on what you said about “4023” and “X/Y not converted,” I still can’t confirm with 100% certainty whether it is an IAT (intake air temperature) or MAP (intake manifold pressure) map.

Provide the following information and I’ll be able to determine it directly:

  • What are the “row/column headings” of this table? (For example: X 轴=RPMY 轴=mg/stroke or wording such as mbar/kPa)
  • Take any 3 points from the table: for example, what is the value at low RPM and low load, what is it at medium load, and what is it at high load?
  • What software are you using to read it (WinOLS/ECM, etc.)? Is there a “unit/conversion” field or a calibration formula provided in the guide?
  • If the table is MAP, the units you would usually expect are kPa/mbar; what is the range of the values in this table (minimum–maximum)?

You can also send another screenshot: capture the complete X/Y coordinates and the range of the table values (don’t capture only a single cell). Then I can give you a definitive answer based on common ECU calibration formats.

x y have not been converted
med17.9.9 MAP (intake manifold pressure, actual or target) tuned by winols

MED17.9.9 + WinOLS usually has these characteristics (especially in the case you mentioned where X/Y has not been converted at all):

1) X/Y The physical quantity usually would not directly be on the scale of an entire table such as “raw 600~25000”
  • If the MAP uses a kPa/mbar scale, it is generally around ~20~250 kPa (or the converted mbar range), not direct values such as 20,000~30,000.
  • Of course, “raw count values” also exist, but they usually correspond to a fixed conversion formula, and the table will be closer to the ECU's internal calibration relationship.

2) The values you mentioned earlier gradually increase from low load/low RPM to high load/high RPM
This shape is more like a demand/metering type (torque request, injection quantity target, air quantity target, EGR/load-related) or an equivalent quantity internal to the electronic control system, rather than the units of the “pressure itself.”

Conclusion (before axis/scale information is available):
Based solely on “4023” and the information you have provided, I am more inclined to think it is not a direct MAP (intake manifold absolute pressure) table

But to confirm 100%, I need you to provide two key pieces of data:
  • in WinOLS, the table's row/column headings (what is the X-axis and what is the Y-axis), even if they are raw and unconverted (for example: X-axis = Load or RPM, Y-axis = mg/stroke or raw kPa, etc.)
  • Take a screenshot of the table's X/Yaxis arrays and minimum/maximum values in the table (or simply list the first 3 and last 3 coordinate values)

Just paste the table's WinOLSAxis name + array + value range in , and I can tell you exactly whether it is MAP, MAF/air target, torque request, injection quantity/torque-related, etc.
