Default FAST MAP Sensor?

I need to replace my MAP sensor. I have the FAST intake. Do I have to have the FAST MAP or is the factory one just as good? FAST offers too many varieties and I don't even know which one to get. 1,2,3 or 5 bar.

Thanks in advance for any help

Factory is fine but make sure you get a new gasket with it. The FAST map hole seems a little bigger than the stock intake's and a lot of people have isses with reusing the stock gasket with it.

This is true, when I reused my old factory map sensor the gasket was a little worn and the hole in the fast manifold is a tad bit bigger so I ended up with a vacuum leak. I had to pull the manifold and replace the map with a new gasket, actually I had a brand new map laying around and I dont know why I didnt use it the first time.

The FAST map hole is way to big, unless you get the new revised intake, which will say "revised" right at the MAP hole. I found that even with a new gasket, it still was too loose. Best bet would be to get some epoxy and fill in the hole let it dry, and redrill so that it is a nice snug fit.

Even with the revised intake, the hole was still not a snug fit. So, I put some silicone around the MAP and let it sit overnight before installing.
