Hi,
I did a MS3+MS3X install on a ST215 engine in my ST184 a few years ago. Here's the success story. I don't have the car anymore, but I can answer your questions if you have some.

will st215 caldina map sensor work on 3rd gen 3sgte - 6G Celicas Forums

Yeah, I forgot, it's also used for overboost protection (overboost fuel cut). This is why you can simply disconnect the vacuum line from this MAP sensor and no more overboost fuel cut on a gen 2.

The MAP sensor on the 2nd gen is for the OEM boost gauge only. It's not part of the main fueling of the ECU. So, arguing about this is pointless on the OP subject.

Not even need for a manual ECU. I used an auto ECU on my swap and I was using a S53 tranny and all went well. No CEL or anything like that.

Gaskets for 4th gen 3S-GTE engine - 6G Celicas Forums

6th Generation Celica › Forced Induction
A lot of the engine gaskets are the same between the gen3 and the gen4. From memory, the main difference is the valve cover gasket, all others from the gen3 should work on the gen4.

Sorry, I didn't understand it this way the first time, my mistake. Still, you can try to find a used ST20X gauge cluster and swap the coolant gauge only.

gen3 has a 3bar MAP sensor.
gen4 has a 3bar MAP sensor, but it is physically slightly different than the gen3 one because it's bolted on the intake manifold instead of the firewall.

Yes, 2 bar relative pressure. But this is 3 bar absolute pressure. Guess what this sensor measure : Manifold Absolute Pressure.
