Fuel Pressure Gauge Needed??
Hey gonna be running a 8 psi ati procharger. I was wondering if the fuel pressure gauge is needed? The price just seems really high for a gauge 200 bucks.

If for some reason your fuel system can't keep up with the supercharger, and you don't know about it to let off the gas, you will be rebuilding your motor. Buy the guage.

I think a fuel pressure gage is more important than a boost gage. You want to make sure you have good fp when you get into boost. Also a fp gage will help diagnose when you fuel pump is ready to die.
