Well would ya look at that, new quote came through with a price much closer to where I thought it'd be :) So one of these is on order now
http://prosportgauges.com/blueWhite-fuel-pressure.aspx
Someday I think I may switch all my gauges to the AEM ones, seem like better quality, but for now these seem to be a good balance between quality and price.
Dude! This is the one I had, when you get it there is a sticker that has a resistance specification. Grab a meter and ohm it, I had 3 bad ones in a row. They never got back to me with a refund or any resolution. He said they are gonna try to find a different manufacturer of senders. It was about 10psi off of what my fuel pressure was actually set to, which at least to me makes the gauge useless.
Ohm the sender when you get it.

Just got the car back from DB. They buttoned up the rest of the exhaust. I was going for a subtle clean look, and as quiet as possible. They nailed it! So it's basically a 3" turbo back w/ a Vibrant Ultra Quiet resonator in the middle, and a Vibrant Oval Muffler in the rear, with a 4" rounded edge/angle cut tip. The sound is louder than stock but still very quiet. On the highway with the windows down I don't even hear it. Thanks again guys!

Now it just needs a tune! Might try some street tuning first to get it to the point where I know it'll do clean pulls, then have to try and find dyno time somehow since it seems all the local dynos are pretty booked up.

Well I ran some thicker gauge wire to the coils, the old wires I think were too small and were causing it to break up. New wires in and the break-up seems to be gone, however there is some sort of strange buzzing sound coming from the rear under hard acceleration. No idea what it is yet. I looked under there and everything seems normal. I drained the diff and there is quite a bit of fine metal shavings. The magnetic drain plug was pretty coated in stuff too. Wondering if something is going bad inside there. Here's a pic kind of showing the metallic flaking. I know some small flakes aren't totally abnormal, but this seems like a lot to me. The pic doesn't really show that well but you can see some of it. Thoughts?

New exhaust sounds great! Fresh fluid in the rear end and let'r buck. Drain it after some more miles and check again.
You sure it isn't the exhaust you're hearing? Either a resonance or vibration under load (i.e. engine movement)
