Consistently getting low pressure code P008A on my 2021 GT. When i accelerate past about 4k rpm it goes into engine management mode and gives me a code something like "Camshaft position sensor A." I've seen some say that a new fuel rail sensor has been the solution and also seen some people say that a new fuel pump would solve the problem. Also been told that it's possible that some solenoids or grounding connections are bad. would love some more insight thanks.

First, use Forscan to check the pressure reported in the fuel rail.

If it's always constant then it's a bad sensor (shorted or clogged), if it's too low after you put some load to the engine probably a bad pump, or clogged filter (which is part of the pump).

Thanks for the suggestion!
