Default Vcm scanner help

Anytime I run a scan my fuel pressure never changes. So I pulled the fuse pump relay and the car died. But pressure still didn't change. Where can I get an accurate fuel pressure with the vcm scanner

What is your VCM Scanner ??…I have a few $2000 plus factory level aftermarket scanners that don’t show fuel pressure…get a fuel pressure gauge…if you had a car like a C7 Corvette with a high pressure fuel pump you can view this fuel pressure because it has a fuel rail pressure sensor.

VCM Scanner is one of the HPTuners apps used with their MPVI device. C6 corvettes don't have a fuel pressure sensor - the scanner just displays a virtual 58psi. You will need to add an actual fuel pressure sensor to log fuel pressure.
