When you are running a modded pump or have your rail capped you need to make sure that you don't have too much pressure or not enough.

I am changing my truck over to digital/electronic gauges, have considered selling my current gauges, all of them work perfectly. Your statement only serves to cause problems for people who have stuff for sale, cause the loss of a sale, about a gauge that may be just fine with no problems whatsoever.



In answer to the poster of this thread. Both DiPricol and ISSPRO make rail pressure gauges, if you are looking for an analog style gauge, both have tons of sales of them out there being used by many people without any problems, both mfrs have good quality gauges for our purposes. I have no experiece with the Quadzilla RP gauge, you will have to get feedback on it from someone that owns one. I have read more good than bad regarding it's quality, but like all the gauge companies, there have been flaws and problems with their products too.

Better to look at a any/all mfrs of any aftermarket product with only one question in mind - do they stand behind their products? If they do, then you should not have to worry about a thing if you have problems during their warranty period. Then the only decision you have left is which mfrs product do you like the most that will suit your needs the best.

I'm on my 3rd one in a little over a year, they are junk, their customer service sucks, Jen sucks to deal with.

Sorry to maybe ruin your sale but why screw over someone else, just trying to save someone else from spending $300 on $hit.

mzcummins.

It is a shame that you have had the issues you have with the gauge and the company. But my emphasis still goes to the fact that many others have not had problems with their gauges and there are many out there working just fine.

Your statements will not affect any sale that I may put out there in the future, my gauge is just fine and has been since day one. If I had any concerns, I probably would return mine for service or upgrading before I put it on the market. It is not my intention to screw anyone over by selling them a gauge that works.

I got my RP gauge when my truck was first new, I had problems with the RP in my truck, Dodge couldn't seem to diagnose the problems, the gauge gave the necessary information to get my truck fixed properly by my dealership.

Yes, my other Di Pricol gauges are great but the RP gauge sucks.

This is the funniest thing I have read today I almost blew my margarita out my nose.

That being said, this is the first negative thing I have read about the DiPricol RP gauge.

What problems have you had with it?
