Best Location For Fuel Pressure?
I was wondering what was the best location to get my fuel pressure reading for my gauge? The pump or the fuel filter housing? I was thinking the lift pump would be the best, but wasn't sure. Thanks, ERIC.

Winner winner chicken dinner!
At the pump will give you post filtered #s, and thats what you really want. Get a kit from Genos it will give you a new banjo with a little larger fuel ports and a direct thread for your fuel line or sender.

I installed one of those fuel filter caps on my buddies 04... It was nice, and I had no problems with the fit. However, some guys on here were having to shave the filter itself to get the cover on properly...

Tapping off the fuel filter cap gives you a pre-filter pressure. The most accurate place is a tapped banjo bolt off the cp3 fuel supply. This is the best way to gauge exactly what the cp3 is receiving post lift pump and filter. I run the fass filters and the stock filter and want to know what the injection pump is getting.
