Default need help with 2 bar hardware

Okay, after doing a fair amount of research I ordered the 2 bar map, and I'm up to that point in my install. But, the connector on the new 2 bar is very different than the stock one. No biggie, I ordered the connector for the new sensor. But I just have a feeling that this is not right.

The map sensor is p/n 12569241. Is this the right map? Now, if I splice the new connector on, which wires go where? And this new connector even needs some modification to make it fit!! Somebody please tell me I have the right stuff!!!

Not sure on pt numbers, but if you want to do it the easy way we sell a harness that plugs into the stock plug of your engines wiring harness, and adapts it to an old school 2 or 3 bar map sensor.

Is this on your website? Is it something you guys make? I'll be honest with you, I am planning on starting the car tomorrow, so I don't really have the time to order something else. But, I'd like to see what this part looks like. If the connectors look like the one that I have it will at least calm my nerves a little bit. I'm more concerned to know that I have the right stuff. Thanks.

I know that gm PN 12580698 is a 2 bar, direct replacement for a truck manifold, and I think it works on the car manifold as well.

So you didn't have to change the connector or anything?

Nope, the one on the left is the stock one and the one on the right is the 2 bar. I believe it is for a Saturn Ion Redline, supercharged. Plugged right in, but had to rescale for it with efilive.
It was like $45 from GMPartsdirect.com

If you have the in-line, 3-pin, MetriPak style MAP sensor like shown above, the connector is the same, but is keyed differently and is usually a different color. You can take an Exacto knife and carefully trim the key out so yours will fit. That should get you up and running quickly.

If you want a new, properly keyed connector, you can see/buy them at:

Thanks Jim. I actually decided to get the same one as KBracing. After trying to get the one that I had to fit on the intake manifold, and it not working as I had hoped, I decided to just wait and get that one above. No need for a new connector, and it'll fit right on. Too bad I already took the dremel to the intake and chopped off the little hook that held on the stock map.

Thanks everyone for the help!
