Phalanx/Fuel?

I've inquired Mick with Spartan if it was possible to monitor fuel pressure using the Phalanx with additional hardware. He responded today stating

"You can monitor injection pressure, but no actual fuel pressure. "

What is the difference and is it worthwhile to montior injection pressure?

If I remember correctly you can use a formula with injection pressure(and I think a couple more readings, but I'm not to sure) and thus get your fuel psi. I've been known to like crunching numbers, but not like that.

Yea, 6.4s and later are easier, because they are already in the PCM. Atleast I'm going to assume that the later ones are still going to have converage given that the 6.4 has it.
