    Actually the absolute pressure sensor is the MAP sensor. It stands for manifold absolute pressure. The maf sensor is the mass airflow sensor which is something totally different. All newer cars have a MAP sensor. You can see the MAP sensor on top of the engine on the right next to the valve cover.

Usually up top of the intake with a bunch of hoses stuck to it, or high up on the engine with a hose from the intake going to it. The hoses can not be crimped or kinked. Hope this helps.
