Remove the two screws holding it to the bracket, pull the vac line off, swap them out. No other mods necessary.

No, you need alky or high octane gasoline to run higher boost.

I know thats vague but so was your response...

is the 3 bar map sensor better than my stock one, if so how is it better and why?

on a stock computer car , the map sensor is ONLY used for the guage on the dash.

Unless you're running speed density with a T-pro....right???

Wow, talk about asking a question that needed a WHOLE lot more info attached to it...

I should have asked why you wanted to swap it...

Do not change the map only to run higher boost, and as stated above DO NOT run higher than 14-16 without race fuel or alky injection. That is, unless you want to become intimately familiar with the internals of your motor and the headgaskets... :redface:

Yeah, that is why I get for shooting off an answer late at night and not digging to see why exactly! :biggrin:

Doesn't Razors alky kit have a 3 bar included (wink, wink, hint, hint)?

yes sir you are correct....i was very tempted to leave this one alone and watch him say after a week...."my boost reads less after i changed map sensors."
