Is this replaceable?
Can the MAP sensor "housing" be replaced? One of the locking tabs on mine is broken off and it looks like it can be removed and replaced but I tried pulling, twisting, and prying to get it out but it has not budged. Has anyone replaced this before? What's the trick to get it out and where can I get one?
Thanks for any feedback! |

Re: Is this replaceable?
Unless you are boosted, you don't need the locking tabs. The silcone map front will hold the map in there just fine.

Re: Is this replaceable?
When I replaced my MAP sensor it pressed in pretty tight. So tight I couldn't press it in any further without fear of breaking it. So I think you're fine.

I think on one of my intakes it was also like this. I am boosted and have not had an issue. I did push it in good and got that clip to clip then zip tied around the hole arrangement. It worked fine.
