You'll need a way to figure out how much boost pressure is needed. The simplest method is to use a boost bolt instead of drilling. Become aware of your consumption. A fuel snubber was also installed inline about half way between the engine and the fuel tank. The gauge will prevent needle bounce, which was a major issue for me.

Silver is the color of the OEM bezels. The chrome bezels on these "factory matches" are a nice touch. It stands out because it isn't the same as the others. As a result, it was not as expected. Second, I've mounted boost and pyro gauges next to each other and connected them to the same dimming light source. The pyro does not dim, but the boost gauge does. I knew I should have chosen a different brand, stupid me. Thank you once more, AutoMeter, for yet another sub-sub-sub-sub-sub-sub-sub-sub product of equal value.
I didn't like how my MM3 looked mounted on my pillar, so I went with factory match boost and pyro. They're low-cost junk that's priced similarly to quality indicators. The boost gauge starts to twitch after around 25 PSI. You can also pound sand when calling autometer if you buy them from Amazon. br>It does, however, appear to be quite attractive.
The gauge is extremely accurate and matches the factory instruments. If you want to dim with your factory instrument cluster, you'll need the Autometer 9114 dimming module, and needle bounce can be quite bad. I contacted tech support, and they are sending me a fuel pressure snubber, which should solve the needle bounce issue.
It's fantastic! It matches the factory gauges and has a neat appearance.
Only came with the gauge; it was supposed to include all installation parts.
It's a fantastic unit, exactly as I had hoped.
