Default What 3bar map sensor?

what 3bar map sensor you guys running on the bigger boosted applications. Say 18-22 lbs. Does GM have a 3bar or do you have a source to find one aftermarket?

Duramax and zr1 are both 3 bar.
I got the duramax sensor first because it was plug and play for my intake,
The tuner prefered to tune using a zr1 sensor, so that's what I changed to

The duramax sensor gave me fits. I read it doesn't have much resolution in the 0-100kPa range.

switched to an ls1 type 3 bar from efi source, no more problems
