Default more on my turbo problems

I am throwing a code 3 which is; Open or short in MAP sensor circuit, defective MAP sesnor. Now if it was reading boost at the map wouldn't it throw a code 5. So is my map bad or what?

I have another map I can send you so you can test it out if you'd like?
I don't remember how much boost you said you were running but the stock 2BAR map sensor is only good up to 11.3 psi. Just so you know.

I thought Hondas freaked out when they saw positive MAP signals? They make a "missing link" device to kill the MAP sensor CEL, maybe you need one of those.

after a lot of research it shouldn't do this unless I had over 1bar, not 5.5psi it should throw a CEL but not dump fuel which means that the ecu is in limp mode.
