I broke the clip on the TMAP sensor. Is it a big deal? It seems like tension will hold it in there without it but I'm very worried. Its the one the JB+ plugs into.

Kane, you're not the first, and probably won't be the last to break it! It's very fragile, and tension should hold it without issue, but if you want, you could throw some tape over it to be safe. I've noticed the easiest way to remove it without breaking is to use a tiny flathead and don't pry at all. Just slide it in as a spacer and then pull. It gives just enough room to allow the plug to slip out.
