Pressure sensor ID question:

I received a pressure sensor that was said to have come out of an S5 TII. The last two numbers and all other besides the "N3" have been rubbed off so I can no longer identify it. The sticker is printed in blue when my S5 NA's is black. Is there any other way to ID this sensor?



This will be going on my 6 port turbo so it would suck to blow an engine because of something as dumb as this.

Thanks.

Yeah the one on mazdatrix's site for an S4 TII has a blue sticker also. I take it they are not interchangeable between series?

Don't guess at this ****...
Plug the sensor in and measure the voltage coming off the signal wire.
Non-turbo sensor would show about 5.0VDC.
Turbo sensor would show about 2.5VDC.
The sensors are not swappable between the series.
One series uses both a +12VDC and +5VDC reference; the other doesn';t.
You can "rewire" the single voltage reference to run on the other series, but not the other way around.
