I dont think our cars have real oil pressure sensor. Just a trip style one that tells you its too late for the light on your dash.

It's not possible; the car only has a dummy light aka "its already too late".

You'd need to add your own oil pressure sensor.

*EDIT* Just read where they can only get oil temperature. Sorry for doubting @CSGMike!


How do the guys with the torque app do it? I thought that I read the AIM sports data logger can read and log oil pressure on our cars too. I thought there might be a secret way to get ecutek to do it also. Oh well...

No worries; it's a super common question!

If you get a high end oil cooler, like the Greddy, it already comes pre-tapped with bungs available, so that if you want to track pressure, you just have to drop in a sensor and you're ready to display the readout via a gauge of your choice.

If you put a sensor in you could feed the output into the ECU for ECUtek if you wanted. Nothing can read oil pressure on this engine as standard.
