the O2 sensor is in the exhaust stream, its reading is the AFR (air-to-fuel ratio).

Lean = high AFR
Rich = low AFR

A "3 Bar" sensor reads "manifold absolute pressure" (MAP), or "boost" in a supercharged engine. It won't read "lean" or "rich" because it isn't a fuel mixture reading... its just reading the pressure of the air before it goes into the cylinders.
