Well its been awhile since I upgraded mine, but I do remember I paid about 100 bucks and it should just replace the stock one with no problems.

hey 94touring, i did not get whether it was a plug in application. and was the part munber that you gave me a GM number, because it is not crossing with anything we have here. i can get a gm sensor for $53 here, but it is definately not a plug in applicaiton...



finally, is it ok to go ahead and get it before i get an ecu? i am only running 9 lbs of boost, and never turn it up.....i was just wondering if it was compatible with the stock ec unit......



thanks again guys.... :bigok:

the 3bar is only compatible with the powerFC it will not work on the stock ecu. if you aren't sure just give RP a call since they will be installing it.....
