Yes, I have two trucks the one pictured in my signature and a 1997 which is the one giving me the problem. When I did unplug sensor the idle did not changet and I did drive it while unplugged no difference. But it never threw CEL??? When unplugged.
About a 5 min test would be to swap MAP's.
When I did some work years ago, I had the MAP removed. It got late and I forgot to re install. Ran like dog pooh on the way home. Popped the hood the next day, it was staring me in the face. Plugged back in and it ran like a champ.
I will give it a try. The strange thing it just worked fine the day I changed stuff. Is it possible to " blow" one out with new turbo and bigger sticks???

Anything is possible. It could also be that it was about to go and you helped it along. Who knows. Swap it and report back.
Get it running right and start saving for e fuel and a better turbo.
They told it would, that why I got it??? What makes you say no??? Just curious.
There simply isn't a "drop in" turbo that will flow enough air to balance the amount of fuel you're throwing at it. To make your combo work right, the tuner needs to pull fuel out of it. And at that point, why bother with 2.5's? You will be battling heat and boost.
I will check that when I get off work. But wouldn't the map sensor hose failure ( if it did) show up on the pressure test??? It held 30 psi of shop air just fine.

It is possible to damage the MAP sensor with too much boost. Change the MAP sensor and see what it does.
I sure hope that turbo wasn't 3k. But I'm assuming that was injectors and turbo. Not wasted, but some of that money could have gone elsewhere. I'm running stage 2's on stock air. You really have to pay attention to what you're doing. And know your truck. I have upgraded to a B&W S369 with T4 mount. I don't have this in yet, but it's a SIGNIFICANT upgrade in turbo. Plus the t4 mount gives many turbo options down the road.

Yes, 3k for turbo and injectors. I run stage 2's on my other truck with stock air also. I just wanted to try ltitle bigger with this truck. I was shooting for 500 hp

Not with That turbo. You need more air. Not to mention e fuel. You have head studs, push rods and valve springs?
