you need the apexi boost control kit, it comes with a 3 bar map sensor.

Its been a while since I've used it, but if your boost control kit came with a map sensor, it should all be PnP with the pfc. If not, I believe you can use your stock map sensor, but I don't remember if it was able to plug into the pfc. If you do have the pcf map sensor and you are having trouble getting the engine to run, there should be a setting in the pfc commander to select different map sensors, its the one called Apex Press, IIRC.

the boost control harness plug's into the power fc itself and has a plug on it for the that sensor.it has another plug for the boost solinoid also,so i was assuming it was to read boost pressure only.

yes I know theres two plugs, one for the boost controller, and one for the map sensor. Have you tried contacting any apexi vendors for the map sensor? If you can find it, you will love the pfc even more.

give em a call see if they have the 3bar map sensor for the pfc.
another option I hear was to use a msd map sensor...but not 100% sure.
