Default Bad Map Sensor?

Okay, I pulled code P0107 and pulled my manifold off. Sensor looked good, in place pluged in all the hoses back there were hooked up right. But it was fine before I swapped from my LS1 to LS6 manifold. Any ideas or should I blow $100 on a new one at the dealer.?

I found one on ebay for cheap and replaced it. Still pulls the code!!! I know that is an important sensor for the car. I can't tune the car with out it and I know that effects the current tune and probably retards the timing. Any one ever have a problem like this before?

I dunno, it seems to run just fine. Can't hear anything and it seemed to seat fine. I bought it used and the owner before me had it painted and then power washed it. I'm sure some paint got in the back and dried up where you plug in the sensor. I blew through it though and didn't feel resistance.
