I found the map sensor is toast along with the tps and the egr valve was stuck closed. That explains my troubles getting my thunderous turd running. My question is where is the map sensor located? I have a spare intake laying around that i can swap the sensor out. and also what does it look like? Is it the thing on the side of the throttle body?
