OK, I'm assuming the ProCharger system will have a means of attaching a boost pressure sending unit. Can anyone confirm this? If not, how and where would such a sender be plumbed into the system?

Secondly, what about fuel pressure? How and where can a sender be added for this? What specific sender will work and what adapters might be needed? I understand this may be trickier than usual due to the returnless system we have.

I think I found the answer, from an unlikely source:

Can anyone confirm this is all that will be needed? I'm wondering if the fuel rail fitting is really AN; aren't most factory flares 45 degree as opposed to AN 37 degree?

Boost is vacuum, so you tie it in to a vac. port. Not the brake booster hose. I will look at the fuel rail and let you know about that.

I never considered using the brake booster....

The boost is the easy part. Vac supply, and hook the light up, DONE.

Yea, I'm expecting the blower system has a port made for that purpose. Just got confirmation that the AN fitting for the fuel rail will work for the fuel pressure too.
