Ok guys, quick question. I know I need a 3 bar map sensor to keep my truck from coding while running a TM. My question is, does anyone have a parts number for one? Or is it the same as the turbo boost sensor? Thanks guys
You need a tune to keep your computer from coding and limping/cutting fuel with a TM. MAP sensor alone isn't going to prevent this as high IAT's can also limp the computer. You don't normally replace a MAP sensor rather get a tune.
Apparently, the 3 Bar MAP sensor is the same as adding the 10K Pot to the existing MAP sensor to fool the sensor so the TM can be adjusted at a little bit higher pressure like 12 psi without defueling or causing high EGT. Obviously it won't be as high boost as a new tune.
Ebay seems to be a good source for 3 Bar MAP sensor.
Just search "GM 3 Bar map".
The part no is actually in some of the link posted by Edz in the original post.
People just have to cut and paste the link to a browser because link to non-vendor is prohibited but not impossible.
