watching the fuel psi...

[kinnisoj]

Okay guys looking for some advice here...Looks like the next thing on my list is gonna be monitoring the fuel pressure. I do have the EDGE CTS already but it looks like it will cost me another $300 +/- for the eas sensor input and the eas pressure sensor itself. I do like the plug n play part but Im open to ideas. And I am hearing grand ma in the back of my head..."dont put all your eggs in one basket!!"
So looks like budget is around 300. Maybe a pillar set up? What would you guys suggest. Thanks

Steering column or single pod below the bar and a glowshift fuel psi gauge.

I would get a set of glowshift max tow gauges for boost, EGTs, fuel pressure.

Here's what I'm doing for fuel pressure:

Glowshift Fuel pressure gauge: $41.00 shipped (used on ebay) - cost new $60
Strictly Diesel fuel port adaptor with schrader, 1/8 npt port, and hose: $55.48 shipped
Single pod on my pillar: $20 (ebay)

I'm in the same boat with my CTS. I think I'm going to go with an additional gauge instead of getting the sender to the CTS. I've always liked gauges, and I think fuel pressure would be a good one to have available all the time (instead of toggling through it on the CTS).

I was looking at Autometer, but those Glowshift Max tow gauges look pretty sweet. The price is nice too!

Now I just gotta figure out where to mount it.

I have the maxtow 0-60 psi boost gauge and I REALLY like it. In fact, I liked it so much, I bought another one to use for back pressure and I bought a fuel pressure one too.

I've been doing alot of studying on past threads becuase I also need to add a fuel pressure gauge. I decided on adding a steering pod but i've been reading ALOT of problems with the glowshift gauges so i went with autometer z series . My buddy has a set of glowshift gauges and none of them are working at the moment and there just over a year old. I think if your not looking to spend much for sure go with the glowshift but plan on tinkering with it later down the road. If your looking for longevity I would stick with an autometer or isspro gauge for example, you'll never have to touch it again. You can pick up a autometer fuel pressure gauge off ebay for around 165.00. This is jmo of course.

I gambled and went with the GS Elite 10 series gauge and steering column mount. No issues whatsoever...

Any pictures of the steering column mount?

So far, out of the two trucks that I have seen them in and now put them in mine as well. GlowShift gauges seem to work just fine. I know folks scoff at the price but I bought a $200 ProParts Spek 0-60 boost gauge that was a POS. The max tow boost gauge is VERY accurate.
