cheap 3 bar map

It almost seems too good to be true. I typed in cx2231 and this part came up. It looks like the correct one.
Only $15!

Shipping: FREE Standard SpeedPAK from China/Hong Kong/Taiwan - I wouldn't buy anything from there unless you want to wait 3 weeks. I bought something on Amazon once, same area, and I bought it without thinking about it. Literally took more than 3 weeks to get it.

If you want to try something that you can actually buy locally (I found one in an AutoZone here on Long Island): check Duralast part # SU13552 - $74.99

To be honest, looks exactly like the one in that ebay listing. Same color o-ring.

I just recently got a tune, and used the MAP sensor I bought a few years back. But something was off, so I put it back to stock and looked for another MAP sensor and couldn't get one fast - one Autozone on Long Island had it in stock. It appears to be the correct one. I haven't tried it yet, because the problem was the tune, not the sensor.

One day soon, I'll have to actually try it and see if it works.

Aftermarket could work fine, could not.

Aftermarket could work fine, could not.

Like a lot of things Motorcraft, I suspect that the part is really the exact same thing, removed from the production line before the branding occurs. I never bought into the whole "if it says Ford on it, it meets the specs, and if it doesn't say Ford, it's outside the specs and was rejected". Lots of people report finding Ford part #'s and logos on "aftermarket" stuff. The MAP I got from Autozone has no part #'s on it.

On the other hand, when I tore the factory spark plug boot on my SHO's #1 COP on a weekend, I bought a Duralast coil just to get the boot off of it. The numbers and letters cast into the boot are completely different than stock. But I wonder what a Motorcraft boot looks like? (The coil is grey plastic, instead of black like the factory piece, but otherwise 100% identical. I'll keep it as a spare)

Hmm... looking at pictures of Motorcraft Ecoboost coils, they do look grey, like the Duralast part, while my factory OEMs are black
