ok so I picked up three 2 1/16 gauges with the asumption i would mount them under my stereo deck, now that I take a second look.... i dont think itll fit kindasad.gif . Anyone have any good places to mount em? Im trying to stay away from pillar pods because I want to keep a stock look, but if i have to, ill do it. Anyone have any good places to mount? pics?

The question is not how far. The question is, do you possess the constitution, the depth of faith, to go as far as is needed?

Nate, when you first start the car, the pressure will be high. After it warms up, it will drop and the idle will be anywhere between 5-10 psi. At WOT it will probably be around 35-45 psi.

when the oil is cold, it flows slower and the pressure is higher at start up, once it is fully hot (warmed up) is flows easily (idle - lower).

when I first turn it on it sits around 40psi(good) but as soon as i let it warm up, or drive it, it drops down to like 6-15(sometimes lower). it isnt until it cools again and i restart the car that it will get back anywhere near 35-40psi. I drove the car today for about 3 hours, on the highway,and it never peaked over 15 psi. after all that it was around 4psi at idle. so your saying this is normal? cuz its kinda scaring me that my gauges are constantly blinking at me cuz the level is so low.
