Default Stupid Inline Fuel Pump/Fuel Pressure Gauge Question.

If your fuel pressure gauge is on the fuel filter and your inline is between the filter and the fuel rail (after the gauge). Will the gauge still read the same if it were on the fuel rail (after the pump)?

Just put the gauge in between the inline and the fuel rail to get an accurate reading

No it will not read the same. In fact you might not even get a reading if you have it mounted on the fuel filter(with the inline pump).
