Logging fuel pressure on X4?

[80FoxCoupe]

Anyone logging fuel pressure on SCT X4? What sensor is everyone using? I just swapped to a return system and would like to log fuel pressure. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Nobody logging fuel pressure with SCT X4?

You can’t without an aftermarket sensor installed.

The only people I see logging fuel pressure on 15/17 cars have n gauges and the converter box from a normal pressure sensor.

I assumed I'd need a sensor. But which one??

You can use any 0-5vdc output device to monitor as you well know. Personally with a return system I would mount a 0-100psi fuel pressure gauge in the car and tap off of the available 0-5vdc output many from autometer provide. This way you can datalog as well as have live display on pressure at all times. Simply set up the SCT 0-5 analog input to datalog for 0100 over 0.5-4.5vdc signal which is what the autometer generates. Here's one example.

Ordered a 0-100psi stainless sensor and FireWire cable. Stay tuned!

That'll work. Is it E-85 compliant? Not all sensors will hold up to it.

Haven't seen any sensor that said e85 capable. I did order two sensors tho.

 

[ugstang17]

The aeroforce sensor states that it is ethanol compatible. It's $76 bucks however.

Neither Holley or AEM mentioned e85, weird
