Default K-series owners (or anyone else that may know). Problem with motech 3 bar map sensor install

I just received my 3 bar motec map sensor. I was trying to see how I could install it, so it could fit in the same spot to read boost where the stock map sensor went...but there's no room....

So is there some way I'm supposed to rig this thing so it will read boost? In other words...help

Here's a pic of the motec 3 bar map sensor...it's freaking huge...there's no room at all to fit in in the tight spot where the stock one is at.

Here's a pic of the motec:



Here's two pics of the stock sensor..it's the one with the blue connector

okay, am I a bone head or what

I just realized...I should just mount this motec map sensor somewhere else, keep the stock one where it's at..

Then splice the wires from the stock sensor to the motech....or just disconnect the stock one all together?

Then of course run off a vaccum line on the manifold...I think I'm getting it now...how's that sound

EDIT...never mind, I got it now mod, you can delete this...I just saw a how to on hondata.com so simple, I make things harder than they should be.

Its actually a GM 3 bar...pretty much the most used boost MAP sensor out there.

Just mount it on the fire wall
Run a Vac line too it.
Wire it up from the stock MAP wiring
Just keep the stock sensor there to just prevent a VAC leak.
