High Pressure Oil (HPO) is what pushes the plunger in your injectors, pushing the fuel out. Pressures run from 600-700 at idle to 3000-4000 at WOT. A High Pressure Oil Pump gauge reads what kind of pressure your pump is putting out. If you have a program that is asking for too much HPO, performance will suffer, or if your pump is weak, peformance will suffer...

Here is just a quick video I took a while ago, its of my Scan gauge with both Duty Cycle, and HPO pressures.

Duty Cycle is how hard the pump is working... Anything more then 40-45% is too hard... I need a new pump.

YouTube - 54% duty cycle

and on a side note Isspro makes it super easy to install the HPO guage in the Performax line. The engine connection is literally a pigtail that is plugged into the ICP sensor, and run to the Performax ECM.

Looks great Clay.

Realistically no, 3800psi will start to cause the poppets to float. I can not see any reason to go over that pressure.

I'll add another thumbs up to the Performax line .. I have 11 of them installed and they are a BREEZE to do once you have the main control unit set and wired ..
