I am not familier with the comander but to get rail pressure you plug into the fuel pressure sensor, kinda near the MAP sensor.

I would think the fuel pressure kit you are talkin about is to read lift pump pressure befor the cp3.

Somebody please correct me if I am wrong.

its been awhile but the fuel pressure kit come with 3 wire and the fuel sending unit and banjo bolt to tap into the injection pump.to answer your question is yes you need the fuel pressure kit to read rail pressure.
1 wire for the fuel sending unit
1 wire for the rail pressure.
1 wire for rpm reading but not used yet.

i just looked up the install file on quadzilla and this is what it says.

The Commander is very powerful in its basic form, but there are also a few
accessories that you may want to use.
These parts are as follows:

Fuel Pressure Kit:
This gives you the ability to Command RPM, Injection Pressure, and Fuel
Pressure. This kit also includes the needed pressure sensor for reading fuel
pressure on the low pressure side from 0-100psi.

Data Logging Software:
This gives you the ability to download logged data to a PC. You may also
use this software to log directly to your PC for larger data capacity. You may
also view all of the logged parameters in real-time on your PC or Laptop.

Translator Module:
This gives you the ability to control modules listed on our website or the
ability to run 2 modules simultaneously.

Module Wiring Adapter:
The wiring adapter will allow you to adapt almost any power module to the commander.
