With that being said, I would recommend buying one, and it wouldn't surprise me if LJ includes it in future kits. Just remember that you have to run a modified tune specificially for the new MAP sensor so it isn't just a bolt on affair.

What's interesting is that when I brought this up to my tuner, he advised emphatically to take it back and strongly advised against using the omni 4 bar map sensor. He's done some tuning for Crawford and been working on tuning the innovative SC and stated that the map sensor introduces significantly more problems than it helps alleviate, particularly at higher power levels.
