I've got a new Alfa, I've also brought a new racechip to fit to it, but the engine layout on this car is alien to me (I've had racechips on previous cars).

The image below shows the engine layout. Can anyone highlight to me where the Turbo Boast Pressure sensor is (I think this one is obvious but just as a double check) and what I cant find is the Manifold Absolute Pressure sensor, thats the one I'm really stuck on...

Surely whatever it is you're fitting...has instructions relevant to the car you're fitting it to ?

If they cannot even provide that, I'd be rather concerned about even attempting to fit one to the car in the first place...

The layout they sent is more generic, not the actual Alfa engine.

I hear you about being concerned, I've used them over the years and I've never had a problem (I know others have, but seems to be a minority rather than the majority of people who fit them).

Looked at YouTube, Google and just emailed the racechip guys, but being a Sunday I'm not hopeful of a response, trying to see if anyone knew where or I'll wait for their response.

The MAP sensor will usually be on, or linked to the inlet manifold so shouldnt be toohard to spot.....although that photo isnt going to show much as the engine bay does look like a bit of a nightmare.

You may start poking about.
