    If you have not replaced the sensor with a 2 bar then you cannot run those MAP linear and offset settings. If you set them back to stock you will be good but you will not have 2 bar so you just burned $100. Long story short you need to replace the MAP with a 2 or 2.5 bar sensor.

    would it be any benefit to install the MAP 2 bar sensor. Would the gm part# be 12580698 .

    debating on getting turbo for vehicle.

    Since it looks like you've already burned the credits on the 2 bar OS I'd say it's well worth the price of the MAP. Thats the part #, yes. Even without the custom OS it would allow you to log boost.
