Default Gutting a stock map

I remember a while back i saw a thread on how to gut a obd0 Map sensor, like getting all the epoxy out and putting a 2.5 bar inside of it etc.. Pretty sure it was here but it may have been on H-T. Anyone have a link, i can't find it for the life of me.

What's so difficult about gutting a stock MAP and stuffing a Motorola unit inside it? I've been doing it for years; MADMAX got the idea from reading my pgmfi.org posts. The potting compound is annoying if you use hand tools, but the stealth is worth it. Drill press does it in 15 minutes.

Ya i got it figured out, i had the epoxy scraped off but i couldn't get that little tin part out, i ended up just cutting it with a dremel down the middle and then prying it out. ---- that goop is a pain in the *** to get out tho.

Yeah, it sucks. Drill presses are god, though.

That was my next option if the dremel didn't work. It's nice how the three pins are sticking up perfectly now that it's all gutted.
