What stand alone pressure gauges that closely match OE has anyone had good luck with? I'm reading negatives about STRI's on multiple enthusiast pages. Thanks

I'm getting ready to install an AEM 30-4407. I've heard a lot of good things about it, which is why I decided on it.

What ever gauge you get. Make sure it goes to 150. Because a 100 gauge will get pegged.

I used the Spek-Pro Oil pressure gauge. I chose this one becasue goes it to 120psi. At start-up usually I see 110psi after a cold start. The gauge is also much easier to configure on the fly. Just a point of view. Here's what I used: Spek-Pro oil Gauge

Yes, the needle is stable. No sudden needle jumps when the pressure rises or falls. The sensor and the gauge are stand alone. The wiring is included.

Wouldn't you want the needle to reflect the actual pressure, even if it's bouncing? I think that's better than artificially smoothing it out. Last edited by dts3; 03-25-2019 at 08:47 PM. |

So then would there be another reason to cause unstable oil pressures aside from the galley gaskets? I'm assuming that the sensors and needle stepper motors are accurate and that the actual pressure is jumping around by whatever amount (about 5 PSI on mine). When I see it bounce I can always calm it down by paying more attention to my pedal usage, so I'm assuming it's an accurate reading. Given it's accurate I would definitely want to see it, vs having the gauge hide it from me.
