Yes, I'd go with 80 psi

2) pressure sender. folks use the 996 pressure sender when doing the 996 cluster conversion, and i've read that the output of this sender is approximately equal to the VDO 10 ohm to 180 ohm requirements. can anyone confirm this? otherwise, the VDO sender looks to have the same thread as the 996 unit and comes with an idiot light on/off switch, so i should be able to use it in place of the 996 unit (it is also cheaper); can onyone confirm this?



thanks, trk.
As far as I know the thread is M14x1.5
