Default B&M Fuel Pressure Gauge

On the fuel filter i currently have there are both fuel lines on top, instead of one fuel line on top and one on bottom. My question is, does the fuel pressure gauge mount on top, where the service bolt is, or does it mount where the banjo bolt currently is.
Sorry for the newbie question, thanks in advance.

The gauge should come with its own banjo bolt that replaces the stock one, and gives you the port for the gauge.

Exactly. The instructions tell you all that needs to be done. Easy job.

don't forget to put teflon tape on the threads. Or else it will leak and may cause a fire

I think like 40-43psi at least that what the manual for a B16A3 says. You can kinda fine tune this based on you mods if It runs a little rich lower the presure a little.

i know in the helms for the 88-91 si's it says the fuel pressure should be between 36-41psi so i figured it would be somewhere around there...
