Haven't looked in a while but I want to say there are three different part #'s for the gm 3 bar, I'd have to check the aempro software (don't have it on this pc) for the specs but I believe they do read a slightly different pressure range. I might be off base though so somebody check their map sensor config menu.

You are right on. From one 3bar to the next they can read slightly different. This is a GM part remember? What do you expect!
