fuel pressure?
 
at idle in at 60 pounds and full throttle im at around 42 pounds. and where is the best spot to put pyrometer? will right before the turbo work or just on the divers side exhaust manifold? and can you use the sd fuel pump

Pyro goes in the drivers side manifold right before it turns up into the uppipe. There is a flatish spot to drill and tap.

Your fuel pressure sounds normal for a cam driven fuel pump.

Yes you can use a sd fuel pump but there is much more to it than just throwing it on. You need to delete the fuel bowl/pump, add pre and post filters around the electric fuel pump, add a regulator, and do some work with fuel lines...

I have mine set at 68psi at WOT I might drop 1 psi. I have my pyro in the drivers side manifold right before it connects to the uppipe. You can use a SD fuel pump but you will have to convert to electric fuel. Im running a SD fuel pump now.

if you have occasion to take off your turbo, a good place to put your pyro might be in your turbine housing where I put mine, but just so that it is reading your drivers side exhaust bank

I want my sensor right next to the cylinder so I know exactly what my temps are.

mine is in the drivers manifold about 2 inches before it connects to the uppipe.
