Not that I have seen, but i'm with you on this - thinking that 10-20psi of boost will break a 1bar map sensor is ridiculous. it's not like there's a diaphram in it to break, it's a solid state sensor. I don't use ANY sort of clamping device - either electrical or mechanical (Benefit of the 95 model year), and i have never lost a MAP sensor. My car has been turbocharged for nearly 4 years.
