I would love to know who has a spare or knows of a specific place to buy an Engine Control Boost Sensor!

?
I will try my luck with local wreckers who have any form of an FTO/s in stock...!
It is mounted to the firewall of MIVEC models ONLY... FYI

Adjacent to the Intake Manifold is where you will find it situated

Along with a short hose connecting to the Manifold (to obviously gauge engine load via vacuum!)
Cheers in advanced Damo.

You mean the MAP sensor
Turbo's don't come standard on FTO's

MAP(Manifold Absolute Pressure) Is what you would call it, on the other hand i gave the part description as what this part was described as.
Turbo's aren't factory on FTO's ... Why would you say this? O.o ? Oh "BOOST CONTROL" Yeah hahahahaha.

lol, just looked it up on ASA, it is described as a Boost Sensor
But yeah, same thing really, just depends on what range of pressure it can handle, I don't know that the standard FTO 'MAP / Boost Sensor' would be able to interpret very much boost being that it's not designed for a turbo engine, but could be wrong. Often am

Engine light came back up today and the revs stayed a little higher, so while this was happening i thought i would tap the MAP Sensor and presto the revs dropped back down to normal, so it's an intermittent fault with the MAP Sensor hehe.
