Default New cts installattion?

Need some more help fellas,I have the fass 150 on my truck. i am having a shop install the new edge cts for me.I am wondering where you install the fuel pressure sensor for it? The shop its at is making it out to be a big deal cause the old fuel system isnt in play no more,He seems to be confused by it saying he'll have to make a special t adaptor to put the fuel pressure sensor in the new fuel line?? I am about to blow my top.not sure if this guy is pulling my leg or if he's telling me the truth? Many thanks in advance for any help!!!

I had a CTS for a day. It is all electronic so you would need a new sensor and some type of adapter. I know the AirDog has a port you can use for their low pressure switch. I'm not sure about FASS though. You could check your owners manual. The other thing is that it plugs into the OBDII port so I'm not sure how you would go about getting the reading to the CTS unless you hooked it into the existing fuel system wiring. You did bypass your stock fuel canister with the FASS right?

It would be difficult. I don't know why it is such a big deal though as many people have aftermarket fuel systems. Have they ever installed a CTS before???

Is it just a threaded NPT fitting that can easily go into a T connection? I never even looked at mine, but that CTS was nice. I might have to get one in the future.

Something like this will make it quick and easy. Sounds like that shop is making it out to be a big deal so they can chrage more. It is extremely simple.
