44816, Fuel pressure gauges
Posted by dougie2, Mar-15-03 02:20 PM
Here's my choices:

1. Autometer Pro-Comp Ultralite Mechanical liquid filled in gauge cup on hood. ($100)
2. same gauge under hood ($60)
3. Autometer Phantom electric gauge inside car. ($220)

What kind of fuel pressure guages do you guys use? I'll need to see it from the drivers seat with my other gauges to tune properly, right? I need some help here... a $220 electric gauge is a lot, and I'd hate to drill into my hood for a mechanical gauge. What should I do? I'll be tuning 450cc injectors and an S-FMU.

Hey guys where did you tap into the fuel system to get the presure for the autometer in car fuel presure gauge?

I run the Autometer Sport Comp series electrical fuel pressure gauge. Around 190 for it at Summit. I really like it, seems to work very well. I just tapped the sender off of where my old HRC pressure gauge was, on the end of a fuel hose. One of the fittings on the HRC gauge fit perfectly onto my autometer sender, so that was simple, no add parts needed.

aiiight... looks like I'll bite the bullet and get an electric one. :) I'm getting the phantom though, so it matches my other 5 gauges.
