Where is the best price on a 3 bar map? Eric sells them for $60.00.I'm going to try speed density (for a change) so I'll probably be selling my MAF & translator+ for a stocking stuffer price.
-
Do you have the AC Delco PN?
Good to see you posting. :)
-
The ACDelco PN is 213-1562 - Rock Auto is $87.79 - Higher, assuming Eric is selling ACDelco though. Rock has a Delphi, says it's the actual OE part - $49.89
Found this:

Holy Kaddidlehopper,I didn't expect all this help.Thank you very much.I'll try fishing around for a good price.Looks like Eric is pretty reasonable.Eri c has a discount going until Christmas Eve.I'll have a new turbo and speed density to fool with.My car is almost identical to "F1's" white limited,a 10 sec wolf in sheeps clothing.I'm on a mission to destroy these new 5.0's.There was a huge amount of Ford hype in the beginning but the 5.0's are a 12.8 (@ 110 mph) with a good driver in stock trim.There was a custodian at Buick (back in the day) who was running 12.9's with an "in-house" chip and very little done.All the "hype" from these shops makes me sick.

"Kaddidlehopper"? Hahaha
Good to have some inside knowledge. :)

A look on ebay is surprising.I've found the correct p/n's (16040749,12223861) for 25.94 shipped.They claim its brand new in the original wrapper out of Naperville Ill.I wonder if it has something to do with "NOS4GN.com"??.I also found some for 40.00 shipped with corect p/n's and declared as new.Both vendors had high ratings.I hate not dealing with "our vendors" if they're reasonably close in price then I need to help out.Good to be posting.I've just been crazy busy with school.

If you are a serious diy guy:
2.5 bar :

I'm sure they used to have a 3 bar kit, can't find it anymore
-
From a cursory looks at the ones on eBay - they are Standard motor equivalents, not Delphi or AC Delco. I don't know if I would really cut too many corners- especially if it's going to be used to monitor boost or for alcohol injection duties.

Sounds like something Norbs would try.

I bet the Delco ones all come from the same factory as Standard, etc. Last relays I bought from the dealer all had another box inside the Delco box saying made in china
-
I suspect they are ALL built using a Motorola IC ( the one in that kit above).
The sensor is very linear, comes in 1-4 bar in half bar increments.
They could MAYBE mess up the transient protection so it blows more easily.....
