Default Aftermarket MAP Sensor?

Hi everyone

I need to upgrade the MAP sensor from my Lancia Delta(mine is 2.5bar and need 3bar, too much boost ), and it's the same as used by Sierra Cosworth I think, this is the reference:

Magneti Marelli APS05/01

I've seen at ebay some that are not branded for around 30 pounds, and the original one costs around 100. Are they good enough? Do you know some other better alternative for that price?

Here's an example:

Thank you so much! And sorry if already posted, I tried the search but with my poor english it's really hard hehe

I've heard stories that cheap ones on ebay are cheap for a reason, in other words they're shite, stick to an original mate, better for you in the long run

As said, stay away from them, only buy the genuine Magneti item, it will cost you more but it will save you an engine, the scales on the aftermarket ones are known to be way off what they should be.
