What all do I need to add fuel pressure to my CST?
 
#2 ·
Pressure sensor expansion

I think he is looking for someone to post the actual parts he needs. I would be interested in this also.
 
#5 ·
And what do you put the sensor in?

Sensor will go in place of the test plug on the front of the fuel bowl. You will also need a m12x1.5 oring to 1/8" adapter. I put a 1/8" 90* after the adapter for a little bit more clearance. Strictly Diesel has a kit to relocate the sender with a hose.

I didn't use the a relocate kit because it is temporary, I am getting ready to build my own fuel system and R R.

I already have the edge egt probe but its not the expandable one. Do I have to replace this also?
 
#8 ·
Yes you do if you want to use both.

I'm not going to lie. $300 for a few wires and 1 sensor is a little high for me.

Good to know its possible though. When my Banks stuff quits working (hopefully a long time from now) I'll be going with that setup for monitoring.
 
#11 ·
300 is a lot for all that stuff but its worth it edge makes quality stuff
 
#12 ·
Just made a few offers on ebay. Might get lucky and get them both for around 220. Will post up if I do to spread the info.

Keep us posted!

I agree with the too pricey portion of adding fuel psi. As much as I like my CTS, it is a bit more costly to have everything monitored in one spot. Having said that, I have the expandable egt which isnt a bad price, but after seeing I need two parts for fuel, adding up to almost $300, I have been thinking about a steering column gauge just for fuel and the rest on my cts. This way its still a somewhat clean install, I get to keep my oh sh!t handle, and its slightly cheaper.
 
#16 ·
want to trade your expandable for my non expandable egt probe and some cash?

I'm struggling with how to do a fuel pressure gauge with my current setup. I could get the single pod that mounts below the OMG handle, but I'd have to move my Banks IQ and its awesome where it is.
