Oil pressure or Fuel pressure?

mjeffries · 09-03-2007, 06:33 PM

Two weeks until I begin my install, time to get the details nailed down. I have three gauges, an AEM UEGO, GReddy electronic boost gauge and a GReddy electronic pressure gauge. I'm assuming that I can use the pressure gauge for either fuel or oil pressure.

My question is, which one? I'm leaning towards using it as an oil pressure gauge because I figure if there is a problem with the fuel pressure the wideband will let me know. Is that a wrong assumption? Anyway, which would you guys use it for? Oil or Fuel?

Side note: Bonus cool points for me for having the first poll. Yeah, I'm "that guy."

oil pressure. hands down. If its a boosted car, the two main gauges someone should be running right off the bat are boost and oil pressure. Granted I have both fuel and oil pressure gauges, I look at my oil pressure a lot more often.
