Find a vacuum hose that will fit in the hole nice and snug. Then put the MAP sensor in that hose for a tight fit.

My question is if THAT is loose, what's been used to plug the rear, where that MAP is supposed to be?

That intake provides two locations for the map. Both holes are sealed from the factory, you have to drill whichever one you intend to use (atleast thats how the 102s are). Hopefully that rear hole is still filled in.

True, but that appears to be a 90. That one came pre drilled.

Just curious what they might have used to plug it...
