Which is great for telling you your engine just blew up :/ If you can make this work, I recommend setting an alarm or light to go on at 14psi, which is the FSM minimum allowable oil pressure.

Yea I’m looking for more of a data logging solution so I can verify I’m not having oil starvation issues. I wasn’t going to use the factory dummy switch as that thing is kinda useless. I’ll be installing an actual oil pressure gauge, but I want the ability to datalog as well. Since I can read canbus information I figure I can add an extra node to the network and read the oil pressure gauge info off of the canbus (the aftermarket AEM data not the factory dummy switch). But I want to verify if anyone else has done something like this before I fuck with it.
