Okay, is it just the stock MAP sensor in the R?

Yea, it's the OEM 3Bar MAP sensor from the MK7 R

Nearly done now, just need to make a down pipe, and put the fuel pump in and wire it.
Just a quick question though if anyone can help me.
I'm putting a catch can on. The hoses coming from the engine are 5/8 but the biggest I can put on the intake are 1/4 or 3/8. Will this down size effect anything? Basically I'm going to run 5/8 in and 3/8 out of the catch can
What fuel pump did you decided to use ? As for the breather and PCV hose, 1/4 is way too small. I'm not sure if going from 5/8 to 3/8 would affect the PCV system performance in a way you would notice, but it would be better to run 5/8". Running smaller hose reduce the maximum volume of flow and therefore it will build up pressure under high crankcase pressure and rpm since it's more restrictive than a 5/8" hose. In other words, running 3/8" will reduce the PCV effectiveness, VW designed the PCV system with 5/8" hose for a NA application, on a turbo setup I would run 5/8" and nothing smaller
I vent to atmosphere using an10(5/8), IE sells an adapter for the breather and as for the PCV hose, the valve cover have a an10
Don't forget to put a check valve on your vacuum line going off from your throttle body
Okay just did some quick research, Now I know what you're talking about. I've seen them but never understood them.
If I'm correct basically it's like a PCV delete on a catch can. Pressure leaves the crank case but rather then going back into circulation it goes to atmosphere (Similar to a diverter valve vs blow off valve) and rather then gunking up a filter it gets caught in the catch can. Is this correct??

Not a PCV delete, but yeah instead of depressurizing into the intake manifold it goes in the catch can
Awesome, so do I just run a hose to the inlet and block off the outlet in my catch can?? Or run a hose to expel any extra gases?
Also, did you run your SAI into your intake or delete it?
I don't have a SAI on my engine

IE runs their setups back to the air intake. A much cleaner way of doing it. Venting to atm is messy. You'll get a fair amount of oil mist in the engine bay even with a filter on the can. The filter gets saturated pretty fast and blows oil everywhere. Do not go smaller than 5/8" hose on the PCV. In your case even rounting to the air intake vacume will be low and the PCV will always be in the open position. Too small a hose and you risk blowing seals. Too big a hose and you will pull oil from the valve cover.
If you have a filter on your catch can, you can block the "outlet" otherwise you will have to put a filter on the outlet
As for the breather hose, I would put a filter on it. You could plug it to the intake piping but you would need something to prevent boost going in the breather
