Prior to the gate, they are supposed to have priority over CPUs. It's debated whether they have any priority once the upgrade list goes to the gate.
As a PP and PG I noticed a definite bump in the battlefield list from instrument upgrades (although hub to hub I'll still end up behind a few GS and not clearing). But, as mentioned the most sure-fire way is to look for R space when you book. Check out the post above with links on how to do these searches for GPUs (it's the same for RPUs in terms of clearing into R, but you don't need to be W or higher of course).
