Thats all I use. I am sure there will be numerous opinions on this just like any performance part. I have all autometer gauges in my Ram and in the racecar and have had zero problems with them.

Is that an Autometer electric or mechanical fuel pressure gauge? If it's electric, that's pretty cheap for both of those gauges.

I've got Autometer Z-Series EGT and Boost, no complaints so far.

Which gauges did you go with RonP? I like autometer quality (fellow racer also) but I like the illumination of the Isspro as I am not sure if the autometer's will be too 'in your face' mounted on the A pillar with full face illumination....what are your comments about this?

well, I used the ultra lites, but I don't care for the pillar gauges. I mounted mine where the cubby hole was. I had them setup with just the regular bulbs and then I put the little green covers on the bulb. I like it better that way. that might even be better on the pillar, plus I have mine tapped into the dimmer, so I can adjust the brightness of all lights together. Hope that helps.

I just ordered an Autometer Electric Phantom FP gauge 0-30 PSI for $189.95. $40 seems a little cheap. Does Autometer even make a mechanical FP gauge? I never came across one.

I'm mounting mine on the column.

Guages

I have the autometer guages in the A-pillar mount. I have the Egt, TrannyTemp, and Boost. I don't have a problem with the illumination. They don't match the factory illumination but that doesn't bother me. I got the m off or Rpmoutlet.com for $280 plus shipping I believe!!! I can try and get some pic's if you would like. Shane

I paid $140.00 for my Autometer EGT at Advance Auto. The gauge works well and to me it looks good. But $40.00? I'm jealous.

Did a search on ebaymotors and all of the ones for $37 are for mechanical FP. That's about right for a mechanical. Then you have to buy the banjo bolt, the line and isolator so not really that good of a deal.

I have Autometer Ultra-Lite gauges; pyro, 0-60psi boost, 140-280* trans temp and new electric 0-30psi fuel pressure. I am happy with all of them. Don't remember exactly how much the pyro was, but over $100 and I know the new electric fuel pressure was right at $200.

Seems very, very cheap to me.

Well egauges.com lists the Autometer Ultra-Lite electric fuel pressure gauge model 4360 that I have for $222.90. I paid a little less than that, but I have not seen that model for less on the Internet. May be there, but I have not seen it.

The latest Autometer MSRP Price List that I could find listed the model 4360 at $348.41.
