Bad Prosport fuel pressure gauges

I thought I would share this info. A couple weeks ago I ordered a Prosport performance series electronic fuel pressure gauge kit. I installed the kit and the gauge reads 13 psi high, after testing the sending unit, I found the resistance was out of spec. It was 5 ohms, needs minimum 10 ohms. Contacted Prosport, had a new sender at my door a week later. With the new sender installed the gauge read 10 psi high, tested it at 6 ohms. It says right on the sender 10-180 ohms. After a few calls with Prosport I found out this is a known issue and they don't have any answers. He said if I can wait a while hopefully they will have an answer/solution in about ten days.

I ordered online through MAP, I know they have nothing to do with the problem. That's why I contacted Prosport directly. I'm wondering why Prosport is still selling these kits if they know they are defective. Hopefully nobody used a Prosport fuel pressure gauge to set their fuel pressure without verifying pressure with a mechanical gauge.
