Hi Toycam,
There isnt an actual baro sensor, all of your codes are related to the MAP sensor, the PO106 is also a code indicating a MAP sensor system problem(the PCM didnt see a baro pressure change, signal is from the MAP sensor). Other inexpensive areas to inspect are the connectors for the MAP sensor and the PCM (Powertrain Control Module) and of course the harness itself for chaffing, etc... By changing the sensor you disturbed / moved / re-positioned the connector and wiring and perhaps that is why the car began to run normally for a bit, really look close in that area for corroded female pins or the wires in the plug itself, if all of this is in good shape it is pointing to the PCM. My hunch is you will find the problem in the plug itself, either a dirty or corroded pin socket or a broken wire at the plug, the PCM wouldnt cure itself for an hour then fail again, at least that is pretty unlikely.
Good luck,
Bob
