I have been able to get revit to show pressure drop through individual pieces of duct. How can I get revit to show me the total pressure drop/static pressure for a system? Can it show the critical path as well?

Take a look at the System Inspector, you will find information in here, however you will need to ensure that the correct data is on the fittings, garbage in garbage out! The Critical Path is shown with the red arrows.
The attached image shows the sort of data you will get from the inspector.

Can the system inspector also be applied to "upstream" duct work? As in the duct between an air handler and the VAV boxes.
Had success with the low pressure/downstream duct work in a revit sample project. could not get the high pressure/upstream to work.
