Default cel code 3 showed up today

last night my friend and i went out and decided to kill my already dead tires. we found an empty mall parking lot and were doing powerslides using the ebrake. well everythign was dandy till after the 3rd slide, the car stalled and when i turned it on again i had a cel. checked it and its cel 3, map sensor.
checked all connections and everything seems to be fine. doubt there was any damage done since all i did was 3 180 turns, ive done worse during autox.
any idea what could be the problem? you guys dont think that powersliding messed up the map sensor by any chance?
tomorow im going to check all the wires again and reset the ecu, hopefully it will go away. but if not any suggestions or ideas?
thanks
also could i have some how shook the cai so hard that it kinda slipped off? would that trigger the cel 3?
