Question for those of you recording fuel pressure to your data systems: What are you using for a fuel pressure sender? I've seen the VDO units being sold as fuel P senders, but the VDO site clearly states their senders are NOT to be used with fuel. I would preferably like to use a 0-150 psi unit with the same calibration curve as my Oil P sender.

I ordered the fuel pressure sensor when I placed the order with Aim. It is a VDO unit. Here is a link to the VDO unit (P/N 360410) in my car ( http://www.summitracing.com/search?Sort ... e%20Sender )

I would be careful when selection a sensor range to make sure that it has enough sensitivity for the application. Normal data range for fuel pressure is 25 to 45 psi. A 0 to 80 psi sensor is a better match than the oil pressure unit (0 to 150 psi) you are wanting to use.

I use an AEM fuel pressure sender with gauge.
