map sensor should be where your ABS unit is (RHD cars) it has a connector on it and a vac hose (underside).
check if it\'s properly on and if it has no cracks

Could easily be fuel cut as thats what i was hitting with a decat, cat back and air pump removed.
 
My boost leak originally was from the Y-pipe (the joiner hose) and i think it might coming from there again.

D\'Oh, just re-read you\'re 1st post, ignore me!

Have you changed the fuel filter? If it\'s blocked slightly you may not be getting enough fuel to the engine

You have a decat exhuast and a performance filter, so you need to have a remap, you will probably lose the engine if you aren\'t careful.
