Question Fast 90 MM Intake MAP sensor Help!

Ok this Intake is starting to puzzle me,I mean the MAP sensor in the rear of the intake just sits in there?Nothing holds it in? I checked it out tonight and I think it was out because I didnt touch it much and it was outNow all I can gather from this is a Huge Vacuum leak,Correct and WOT would be down on power?So how have you guys made the sensor stay in???? Thanks!!!!

I used silicone sealer to hold mine in place, it works great.

Pro Mouse - There is a better and more permament solution that I picked up from another FAST intake owner. You remove the very back intake bolt and replace it with a longer bolt, a spacer and a small metal bracket that clamps down on the MAP sensor when you tighten the intake bolt down again. Basically it will look like a upside down "L" with the shorter part pressing against the sensor.

Where did you get the longer bolt and the bracket to do this?
