It's the MAP (manifold absolute pressure) sensor

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FORD-1-8-TDCI-FOCUS-MK2-C-MAX-GALAXY-S-MAX-INTAKE-MASS-AIR-PRESSURE-MAP-SENSOR-/261470505347?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item3ce0db4983

MAP sensors help measure and maintain the correct intake vacuum pressure in the air intake manifold. As the intake pressure changes while driving, the MAP sensor will change its voltage or frequency to adjust the rate of air intake. As a result, the proper mixture of air and fuel are able to be mixed and exploded in the piston chamber to provide the energy for the internal combustion process. The MAP sensor is similar to older car components such as the vacuum advance diaphragm or the mechanical distributor.

Fit the MAP sensor first and you may well find that the other problem will sort itself out.

if you tee off that small pipe you can add a boost gauge!
