does the 99 A4 have a MAP sensor?

If so, can someone post a picture of where it is located?

If you mean the MAF sensor...

Most modern cars have a MAF (mass air flow) sensors instead of a MAP sensor.
On the A4's V6 engine the MAF sensor is located in the metal air intake duct that is attached to the air filter housing cover. Look for a squarish plastic gizmo with an electric connector. The sensor itself is reaching into the air intake duct. In order to remove the MAF sensor you will need a tamper-resistent torx bit.

MAP is a pressure sensor

I know the S4 has one, and some people on the forum have tapped into it for a homemade electronic boost gauge.

I was interested in installing one of these in my 99 1.8T but wasn't sure if we had one. Unfortunately it sounds like we don't.

Thanks for the replies. . .
