AEM 5 bar map sensor options: $62 brass vs $147 "Bosch"

[TucsonTSI]

Hola, does anyone have experience with the cheaper brass sensor? Are they are accurate/reliable as the more expensive "Bosch" types?

Cheap brass: AEM Brass MAP Sensor Kit - Modern Automotive Performance

Traditional Bosch: Aem Electronics 30 2130 75 Map Sensor Bosch Style 5 Bar Each | eBay

Obviously an important sensor, but why pay extra if they work just as well?

Any input is appreciated, thanks!

The brass sensors are fine if you're using something like an AEM Tru-Boost.

If you're wanting to use it for logging boost or to drive speed density, go with the stainless sensor. The brass ones are not made to be used for this per a conversation I had with AEM.

Thanks! I am running AEM's EMS, so it sounds like I better buy the Bosch sensor.
