Default Fuel pressure sensor?

I want to add a fuel pressure sensor to my FAST XFI 1.34 system. FAST offers a sensor kit that has the sensor, wire harness, and billet "Y" fitting, but I really only need the sensor itself as I plan to just tap it into a fuel rail, & I can make my own harness.
I hate to pay $100 for the kit if the sensor alone costs a fraction of that.
Does anyone know of a 0-100 psi 3 wire oem type sensor? Where can I source such a sensor?

Thanks for any advise.

Bill

I guess you just found that $100 dollar question. Not only are you getting a part but your are taking out the guess work with that $100.

If you look at the FAST site the sensors are $175. WTH??

For a price difference of $24, I'd just buy the FAST setup. I thought I could probably get the sensor for a fraction of the cost of the kit.

Thanks for the input.

The fast sensor is 12v in 0-5v out 100psi sensor. The xfi looks for any 0-5v input. There are sensors on eBay that are much cheaper. You can find a 5v, 12v, 100psi or 200psi sensor and it will work fine as long as it is a 5v output. The fast sensors are SSI brand. You can scale the pressure range in the software, so any pressure sensor will work fine.
