Unhappy map sensor help

As i cant find the wiring diagram to connect my frst loom too my escort,is it possible to wire a map sensor connection onto a standard escort wire loom so that i wont have to change the engine bay loom,and if so,can anyone tell me what wires go where..Thanks.

Yes,it has the air flow meter and I would fit the ofac frst loom but i have no idea as to the wiring of the block connector that connects the rest of the loom to the engine bay loom,what i mean is,i know what each wire on the ofac engine bay loom is for but as the escort wiring is different and the wire colours are different on the block connector,i dont know what wires i need too join the frst loom too.Maybe you know or could tell me where i could find out...By the way,its a 1998 escort caborlet...1.4ltr efi....Is that info of any use to ya...Thanks.
