I am using a Nordskogg fuel pressure sender and gauge and have it mounted above my stereo using the SAAB Din panel.

Works great and installed in about 20 minutes.

ok here is a question for you

what is the pressure you read at WOT, at idle.

Do you ever read 50 PSI or more?

please tell me.

thanks

Pressure reads around 38 at idle.

At WOT it read aroud 55 psi. (13lbs of boost)

Does that help? what does your read?

I have the AutoMeter and it is way better than the Intellitronix
which I had before.

Idle pressure by the manual is about 28 to 32 psi.
By 0psi boost, it should be 38psi.
Above 0psi boost, it should be equal to 38+ the boost.

So for 12psi boost, fuel pressure should be 50psi.
