This is true, but I'm trying to find out if i will have to modify the downpipe / charge piping. I found out the manifold should fit

what year is your integra. Because if it is a 95 and up you shouldn't have any problems with down pipe and charge pipes.

How much boost are you goin to run? The amount of boost depends on what map to run.

I bought one from a ebay company that is also a web order company that has a out side website. They stand behind it. I ordered mine. Hooked it up and it was bad. They send me a new one the same day with no questions asked.

for now, probably somewhere around 15psi. I was just going to buy a 3bar map sensor right from the get go because i don't want to be bothered by having to buy another if i decide on running more boost than the sensor is able to handle.

can i take any 2, or 3 bar map sensor and wire it up to work? I'm really hoping to be able to score one out of the junkyard if possible. I know people run the motorola, omni, aem etc etc, but can it be out of like a toyota or something that has a 2 or 3 bar map sensor?? thanks guys.

2.5 bar map sensor will give you a max boost reference of 22 psi. 3 bar map sensor will give you a max boost pressure of 30 psi. check ebay. the gm map sensors are all over the place for 50-60 new. why risk pulling a shitty used one from the junk yard. there certain things you do not want to go used. your engines life depends on that sensor.

Ok, I will buy a new one. But my question still stands.

Can it be from like a Toyota Mr2 or something, does it HAVE to be a gm sensor?? I know some of the gm trucks have map sensors, could i go to the parts store and order a map from like a 3.8 v6, or does it specifically have to be from a 89 trans am?!

I don't know about the mr2, but I say get the gm sensor that is at lease an obd1. I say get off of a 95 camaro with the 3.8
