When I realized that wasn't working, I set the sensor offset back to where it was originally, and figured I'll just have to put a vacuum gauge in the MAP line the next time I run the engine.  Unfortunately, that probably won't be before Sat. 
 
Well, I sneaked out today and tested MAP sensor by putting a vacuum gauge in the hose as well.  Both the EM-2 and the gauge read 27" at full throttle.  Perhaps I'll call TWM tomorrow and see what they have to say about the low reading.  Since I tried this with the TB open (no inlet ducting), it's hard to believe that I'm losing 3" over just the 4" long TB.  This must be a measurement error due to the location of the ports.  Man, do I wish I had made note of this before. 
 
Cheers,
Rusty
