DR Evil, in picture #2 of the vp44 test port what do I do if I have my airdog installed on that port?

 

I believe youll need one of these (talk to Erik @ Vulcan Performance to confirm):

push lock


Youll still need a needle valve:

Dorman fitting 3/8 Steel

Sorry no pic for that

 

Is there any other way I can hook up the guage?
The push lock doesnt seem bad though

 

There should be a tapped Banjo Bolt in the kit I sent ya.

 

Hi this is hop sing new to this great site does anybody have install pics and instrutions for installing a fuel pressure gauge for a 97 12v ,i am thinking about the glowshift setup i pretty sure its electric are these gauges good for a budget set up?any help would be appreciated thx & Mahalo!

 

In my honest opinion GS Gauges are Junk. There customer service is horible, gauges are cheap and not very accurate.

 

Yes, use the tapped Banjo Bolt that Luke sent you and install it on the outlet of the fuel filter. On an 01, it should look like this when you are done:

 

I agree completely. You get what you pay for. Accuracy is important and it doesnt come cheap. Isspro EV Series guages are very reasonable. A pyrometer is around $120, Boost $40, fuel pressure around $40 as well. It doenst get much cheaper than that. Mechanical guages are more durable and give you the most bang for your buck.

 

I can certainly help you with that but instead of hijacking someone elses thread - please make your own thread in the 12V Aftermarket forum and you will have your answer.

 

Mahalo! thx very much !i am not that great at posting stuff i am learning how to use the forums and threads my 11 year old daughter is better at this stuff than me but i really appreciate all your guys knowledge,oh thx for the advice on the gauges,thats what i figured i have a auto meter 2 5/8 vac/boost gauge from my drag racing stuff and fuel pressure gauge w/isolator but it only reads to 16 psi i think i wiil just spend the money on a matching pyro,and fuel p. gauge,being diesel i probably wont need a isolator? what u think thx again for the help aloha Hop Sing
