Default Fuel Pressure Gauge Hook-Up
Where do I hook a Westach electric fuel pressure gauge, after installing FASS 150?

You can do it few ways at the LP, in the actual fuel line, or at the inlet of the IP. I recommend the inlet of the IP.

I bypassed my factory fuel filter, and went straight from FASS to the IP. I had my gauge on the IP inlet before, but the fitting is different now.

Right at the vp can cause some fluctuations but nothing major. We just use a T with a ⅛" npt threaded port 6" before the pump
