We at Turbosource have utilized adaptronic's ability to change source locations for specific sensors and created a Plug N Play fuel pressure sensor solution (no wiring required). So now to flex fuel which is fully supported in Adaptronic's fuel model.

This is really cool, and the first time I've read about this PNP possibility
The sensor is listed here - https://turbosource.com/collections/...ressure-sensor
Where in the fuel system would you usually install this? The harness is PNP, but not the sensor itself :P

Its easiest to use the 1/8npt port found on pretty much every aftermarket Fuel Pressure Regulator.
If you are still on the stock regulator( which BTW doesn't work well with BIG fuel pumps), then we do have an adapter that you use the OEM fuel temp sensor spot. Otherwise if you want to keep the fuel temp sensor, then you would need a " T " style fitting.

Makes sense, thank you
I have the Fuelab Mini FPR with a mechanical gauge on it. I could forgo the mechanical gauge and install this digital one instead.

There is zero use for the mechanical guage once you have the fuel pressure sensor. Remove that gauge and install the sensor.

Is this only for the modular units and not the older ones?

The PNP option only works for the modular units. You can assign pins electronically inside the ecu for certain channels. Also the sensor inputs are direct, unlike the select models which required the innovate SSI.

Just in case y'all forgot, the Original Poster bought a Haltech Elite 1500 as said on Page 1.

Good thread though.

Meanwhile over here...we are patting Shawn on the back for suggesting the use of a fuel pressure sensor and acting like adaptronic is the only ECU with the ability to reassign inputs and outputs and that turbosource engineered a revolutionary new plug and play sensor

Great job everyone

x2 for Skeese knowin' what's up.

These are part of my old "high pressure" basemap and I won't be using them, but you get the idea...

So regardless of what fuel pressure may end up with, the ECU has injector data to know how to handle it. I'm worried about hidden algorithms that may or may not be correct. Our lab-grade fuel here is 14.26:1 stoichiometric ratio and 91 octane. $32.20 per gallon by buying in 55 Gallon drums. If your hidden algorithm continually uses 14.7:1 as stoichiometric values (like a dumb lambda sensor), then really, we've just added in more room for error.
