Calibrating Sensors
I couldn't find anything in the archives, so...
I am planning on buying some VDO senders (fuel pressure, oil pressure, oil temp and water temp) however, I am going to make my own led bar-graph gauges with warning lights (possibly buzzers?). My main questions is; what are the ranges of temps/pressures these senders will see? Fuel should be between 30-55psi (with boost), but I only have a vague idea about the others.
I just want to get an idea of what I should scale the gauges to after I calibrate them with an air compressor/boiling water, etc. respectively...
Thanks in advance.

Thanks, but I'm mainly wondering what some normal temperature/pressure ranges are for a d16z6...particularly fuel, oil, coolant. The car is running less than 10psi of boost (if that needs to be taken into account).
