Gotcha. You just don't want to get the chip super hot when soldering. Tin the leads and wire then make a quick attachment.
Hopefully I'm ok. I put most of the heat to the contacts on the old map body side so shouldn't be too bad

Yeah I got a little bit different one than was originally in here. We'll see, I meant to leave the top of the sensor uncovered but jb weld had other ideas about that
Started my SD tune last night, figured I got the sensor, might as well use it. Almost maxing it out, not sure what the max is. Hit 246kpa on last dyno run which has to be close to the 2.5 bar limits.

It works! First try reading was about 2kpa off from the original. Adjusted offset and it was dead on after that. AFR is right where it was prior

I see what you mean now and am making the hold down area thicker. Should be simple enough to make it a little tighter fit..
I wouldn't just fudge the offset until it's right. You should actually look at the data sheet and determine the linear and offset values according to the sensor's calibration.

I had assumed, perhaps incorrectly, that the numbers DPE use would work. I was assuming they use the same sensor, but perhaps not.
After looking at the graph in the sensor data sheet I'm starting to think that's not quite right. I'll play with it more in a bit
Here is the latest design.
I ordered the sensor without the body and was able to squeeze it in the OEM sensor body which makes for a cleaner look.
It took about 2 hours total to make it.
I had to drill a 41/64" hole which is very close to the diameter of the OEM sensor body to accept the new 2.5 bar sensor.
