Well a 15 psi gauge wont do very good, since stock fuel pressure is around 50 psi. Now with a turbo and a rising rate FPR, fuel pressures can get over 100 psi if you are using the stock injectors. I currently use the Autometer electrical fuel pressure gauge, that goes up to 100 psi. Its a nice piece, and works great. Kinda pricey at 180 bucks or so.. HRC sells the mechanical fuel pressure gauge that comes in their kits for around 15 bucks. They are ok quality, and good to set and monitor fuel pressures with, but you can't put the gauge in the car (dont want to run a fuel line into the car). I believe the HRC gauge goes up to or over 150 psi

Because you don't want to run a fuel line into the cab. Its a no-no. If you want one in the cab, get an electrical one with a pressure sending unit - so all you have to run to the cab is wires.
