Default Honda CRX 91, MAP sensor bad?

I have a honda crx 91, d15b2 engine, dualpoint injection, manual transmission. I was wondering where the location of the MAP sensor is at. Could a vaccum leak on the MAP sensor not allow my car to go as fast as it should? It seems to speed up at 3000RPM in every gear.

any advice or ideas would be much appreciated

take a look at the pic and tell me where i can find the MAP sensor

It is the thing bolted on the firewall right behind your air filter.

Alot of bogging, poor performance, run a whole lot of rich, etc.
Basically the Map sensor is important

Is your check light on? Map usually throws a code.

It'll throw a code 1 (02 sensor) if it's not receiving vacuum (broken vac line).
