Thoughts on this fuel pressure guage?

http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku

Im thinking with it being right by the boost guage, Im going to have problems seeing exactly where my fuel pressure is with an analog guage.
Plus, thats 1/3 the price of the analog and its going to be easier to read.

Thoughts?

Did you notice the sending unit is not included? That's why it's so cheap.
Other than that, I would prefer an analog electric, but to each his own.

yeah, I saw that. for an autometer sport comp. elec. fuel pressure I am looking around 160 IIRC.

I may just go cheap, and do a hood mounted mechanical

Analog guages are easier to read than digitals, IMO. Also, you can mount a mehanical fuel press guage inside the car if you use an isolator. It'll be cheaper than an electric guage but isn't quite as clean an install.

I considered doing that, but decided the easier/cleaner install of the electric sender was worth the few extra bucks.
