Quick DIY Fuel Pressure Guage
 
I tried to post this thread in the DIY forum, but the site would not allow me to add images in a new post in that forum.

We recently wanted to add a fuel pressure gauge to our 05 RX8. We came up with a quick snap in solution.

Here is the result and the parts used. We found all of the parts on the internet for very little $. If you want to locate the gauge inside the passenger compartment, you could add a gauge line kit.

That's cool for testing, but for a permanent gauge the aeromotive adapter is best.
