DLP A/D to log boost? - Factory R32 GTR sensor?

Hi guys,

Looking to add boost logging via my DLP A/D converter on an aux channel.

My R32 GTR has the factory sender mounted on the firewall, but I can't find any useful information on it. there isn't even a sticker or stamped part number or manufacturer on my unit. Perhaps the label has fallen off...

Anyway, was wondering if anyone's got one of these working with with the DLP A/D, or has a spec sheet, part number or some other info that I may be able to use to dig up some specs. If we're lucky and its a 0-5v sensor output, it'll be easy with just an op-amp. If its a 0-12v, wont be too hard either, but will need a voltage divider too.
If I get this going, I'm happy to share circuit diagrams, or even do a limited run of adaptors if there is enough interest.

Alternatively, can anyone recommend a sensor to use?
I found PLX do a $99USD (plus shipping of about $60 last time i ordered from them) unit that has a 0-5v output.

Lot cheaper device would be this:
MPX4250D Integrated Pressure Sensor. I've got this wired into my DLP as LHS inputs and using the Innovate LC-1 on the RHS for AFR at the moment

If you can get a wideband unit which does Aux also (like the SLC PurePlus unit I have in the R34 also for example) then the one unit can do AFR and boost

Thanks Matt, looks good... I'll get hold of one of them.

Cheers!

From where did You get yours as I see there is lot of Chinese copies so I would like to buy from reliable source?

I just ordered 2x MPX4250GP from freescale.com if thats what you mean... they are 'commercial samples' :)

$10 handling fee, but for what you get its pretty damn good :)
