Icon2 stock map sensor dependibility?

I have heard that if your boosting around 9-10 psi, that the stock map sensor wont last long and that you should upgrade to a 3 bar sensor even though you may not be boosting past the 11psi. I just need to know if i should get a 3 bar map sensor for my build at 9 psi of if I can just leave the stock one on. Thanks for the help

I had my car tuned on 10psi with the stock map for a few months and never had a problem. Boost cut was definitely set at 11 psi for assurance. Tial 44mm ftw Held 10psi all day and never spiked once.

so the stock map sensor doesn't need to be replaced if only 9 psi. and i wont have to worry about is failing after awhile from it seeing boost?
