RE: Bogging down
Is it boggin down or its just not pulling hard anymore in the upper RPMs. You could just be running out of power so you are just laying over in the top. Shift it earlier and keep it in your powerband if that's the problem, no reason to draw it out if its not pulling anymore.

Well since you're already utilizing your schreader, you'll have to tee into it there or somewhere else in the line. You can run and under hood gauge which wouldn't be that expensive or you could go electric ( like I have) and run a gauge inside the car but they are about 200 bucks

And no, you don't want a mechanical fuel pressure gauge inside the car.

RE: Bogging down
if you have cats still it could be those, my 94 5.0 5 speed wouldnt go over 4,500 to 5,000 it would just sit there and be so slow, the problem i had was clogged cats, and i mean frickin cloged, it only had 95,000 miles on it so i was stumped, so i put headers, racing cats and an x pipe with ford racing mufflers, and it made a huge difference, like from a ford taurus to a ford gt500, it was amazing, i was smiling for weeks afterwards, good luck tho hope that helps
