    fuel pressure gauge

    Exactly how good of an idea is a fuel pressure gauge with forced induction.....particularly 11psi. I don't have one but I'm considering putting one in, any thoughts?

    It's very important, you don't wanna find out the hard way that you're leaning out too much. A wideband is another important gauge for anything boosted.

    I just got mine. I need to figure out how to connect it to HPTuners.

    Mine lets me know that the second fuel pump is working. When the 2nd pump kicks in the pressure jumps about 10 lbs.
