Pretty much all of the aftermarket chips currently offered *require* a 3 bar MAP sensor.

The sensor by itself won't do anything, other than make your truck run like crap. The software the ECM is running has to be changed to deal with a 3 bar sensor. (Not just the calibaration; the actual machine code)

The stock sensor can only 'read' up to 14-18 psi, depending on your base altitude. 3 Bar sensor has a range of near 30.

Heh, I was going to post that myself. However, don't get your hopes up for buying a 10n1 or Ultimate chip because they both aren't available anymore. If you buy one, it will have to be used one...

Here's the history of the Ultimate Chips as well as all the Ultimate Chip software available for free download: http://www.powertuneplus.com/syclone/58bins.shtm

The guys who used to produce/sell Ultimate Chips apparently have moved onto other things and are not actively involved with the SyTy.net community.
