It was pointed out to me that I never mentioned about the MAP sensor thats on the very top of the stock manifold. (thanks 44pirate :thumb:)

The map sensor is only used (from what i'm told) if your maf fails and your car goes into limp home mode. It runs on a sort of speed density system so you could at least get home and not be left stranded. You can just leave it hanging behind your manifold with no ill effects. Just make sure it's pluged in or you may get a CE code.

If you really want you could hook up a vac line from your throttle body (since your not using those anymore) and hook it up to the map sensor. I didn't bother because I really don't care that much, so I didn't hook it up.
