Default just got car running again...need help

I had my car taken from me acoupe months ago and got it back minus some things including my turbo kit. Well i finally got it back up and running (with stock parts) but i have a problem. CEL code #3, which is a map sensor cel. I originally had my oil pressure sender disconnected and i had a bad o2 (had a code 41 and 3 then). Well today i connected the oil pressure sender back up and hooked up another o2 from another one of my other cars. That cleared the code 41 but i'm still getting the code 3. So i swapped a good map sensor on and i still get the code. The motor is all fully back together except for the air filter and pipe. The car drives fine except for a small exhaust leak by the cat. Anyone know why this code is popping up or could help me diagnose it?
