Rail Pressure Gauge Question

I am in the market for a rail pressure gauge. I have heard way too many bad things about Quadzilla so that is not an option. I am really wanting a reliable gauge. I don't think Autometer makes a RP gauge do they? I would really like to have a Autometer Cobalt RP gauge if they make them. I have Dipricol boost and pyro gauges, and they make a RP gauge, how reliable are they?

I had a Dipricol gauge, but it never worked right. I have the Isspro now and like it a whole lot better.

I had a DiPricol RP gauge for 3 years, it worked perfectly, never had a problem with it.

When I decided to change my gauge locations from the a-pillar to a custom dash pod, I decided to install the ISSPRO EV2's, I now have their RP gauge, it works perfectly as well.

Either gauge will serve you well, just depends on which you like the appearance of. I don't think an other mfrs are offering a RP gauge but you could go to their websites and ask them. Sometimes a mfr will put a custom gauge together for you.

What is different between the two gauges? The Dipricol and Isspro gauge look almost identical. What was the problem with your Dipricol gauge?

Just FYI, the rail pressure gauges now are WAY different than the originals.

I don't think I have ever heard of any issues at all with the new ones, they are 110% rock solid! And you can add the FP sending unit to them and have a dual gauge.

Ive been running a DiPricol gauge for nearly two years now. About a month ago I started having problems with it not reading correctly for a bit then it would start working again. When I called DiPricol they said that I had an "old model" gauge and that now the newer gauges have different wiring harnesses and parts to them and that there should not be anymore problems.

I was given a quad gauge and have not had a single issue. Don't have the FP side but the Rail psi side works like a champ. 5 months zero issues

I was going to buy a dipricol RP and FP gauge today, but the place I normally get my gauges from quit carrying the RP gauge.

So what's a good rep for dipricol gauges?

I dont know what "Ad" was removed. If you are looking for another alternative to buying a rail pressure gauge from either Quad, DiPricol, or ISSPRO you can check out a gauge from a company called ProParts. Their gauges are some of the best I have ever seen. their website is propartsllc.com . Their rail pressure gauge for the Dodge CR should be available soon (around the 1st quarter of 2010 is what I have been told) .
