Inline Fuel Pump and Fuel Pressure gauge question????
Ok i have an in-line fuel pump on my turbo b16 and i need to know where to mount my fuel pressure gauge... it wont read on the fuel filter because the pump comes after so where can i mount it? can i mount it on my stock fuel rail somehow? or where the fuel line meets the rail? help me out guys!
...heres a pic of my set up.. you can see the pump mounted next to the bov by the piping... hard to see but its there..

oh damn. i must have forgotten that when i replied.
ive seen a gauge adapter that goes between the fuel rail and fuel feed line (after filter) but it's only for stainless -an lines...
another option would be to drill a hole into the fuel rail, tap it for 1/8npt and put the gauge direct onto the rail.
or get an aftermarket rail that has an aux 1/8npt port.

When I ran an inline pump, I got this adapter from Summit that spliced into the fuel line between the pump and the rail and had a port for a fuel pressure gauge. It seemed to work ok, but I had to use a good amount of teflon tape to get it to seal properly. It also might have been the cheap Summit fuel pressure gauge I got(that eventually broke). You might want to try this as a cheaper route if you don't want to replace or drill your fuel rail.
*edit - I found it the one I used:

and I guess Mr. Gasket makes a gold anodized one that comes with hose clamps for $4 more:

Nah, I don't. since I don't run an inline pump anymore, and I never took any pics of it when I did. Basically, I just spliced it into the rubber fuel line going from the pump outlet to the side of the fuel rail.
