Can anyone recommend a good fuel pressure gauge? I do not think it is really necessary for a nos install, but it is just another insurance policy!

thanks guys

I have the Autometer Ultra Lite II. I love the gauge.

This is a great idea, I've gone this route myself. Bimmerworld sells a little adapter that taps into the OEM fuel line just after the Fuel pressure regulator/fuel filter. This is the best way to mount a fuel pressure sensor with the stock fuel system.

I have heard of people tapping into the fuel feed line that is used for the nitrous system, but I don't believe this is the best place to do it.

Adding a fuel gauge is highly recommended for nitrous only when spraying more than 150+ shot. This is from the experts and on our motors the best place is on the fuel rail at the valve. But more important than that is knowing your AFR when under nitrous or boost. Again i am only talking about higher power levels for nitrous.
