Replace the sensor, I don't know its exact location so hopefully someone else will chime in.

Barometer sensor is located on the drivers side of the dash under steering wheel. Remove the access panel and look along the metal brace at the bottom of the opening toward the right near the Data Link Connector... it should be secured to the metal brace.

That...I don't know. I haven't heard of one actually going bad. Maybe a dead fly is stuck in it?

It would show a false high boost
as boost = MAP - BARO

And the BARO is basically the baseline for the other two since MAP and EBP (not used in your case) can both vary. The BARO sensor rarely goes bad, but it does happen. For reference you can check the national weather service for daily/hourly readings of the barometer to baseline your sensor. you'll probably have to convert it, of course.

I drove around all day on both city and highway today, about 150 mile round trip and the baro reading did not change at all. It remains on 12.5 whether the engine is idling, full throttle or cruising. It is the same with KOEO.

And that is exactly what it should do as it is only reading barometric pressure and will only change with altitude.

The MAP fluctuated throughout the drive. If baro is working correctly, it should be within .5 of the MAP reading? Is that only with KOEO or while running too?

That is only at KOEO.
