Default Dead MAP?

What are some solid signs that I have a dead MAP sensor on my hands? I had the same problem as before where it would die idling and sometimes just bog out driving. Tonight I was under moderate load (in boost), then at the next red light it died at idle. I cranked back up (took a little longer) and still seemed to bog a little.. Cleared up for about 5 minutes, felt like normal...

Kept driving, at about 2000rpm it died again. Cranked back up... It was fine, died the next time I idled.

My A/F seemed to be okay, but maybe a little richer than normal*. No codes like last time either, but it's the exact same problem as before. Tomorrow I'll crank it and it'll do the same thing, even if it's much hotter.

Last time, I just picked up a new MAP and it fixed the problem.

Fuel pressure was fine too.

11am. Same problem after about 10 minutes. Am I doing something wrong to kill these things?

MAP should be around 1-1.5 volts at idle and go up to 4-5 volts with no vacuum (WOT).
