Default Who is running 30 psi(+) boost gauges? What brands, (Besides AWE option)? Do they have vac side?

I ended up just getting a less than desirable Sport Comp II by Auto Meter to fill my need but was curious of other options. Other options I saw in higher boost didn't have vac side.

I couldn't find one like the AWEs with a white need and back light in 52mm for the life of me.

This will have to do. It was ~$65 shipped so a decent price.

I'm thinking of painting the bezel black and opening it up to add my own sticker over the dial but want the light to still shine through.

Default I run this Defi guage. I like it a lot. Only downside is the needle is red as well as the backlight.

but it doesnt bother me. Here is a link:<ul><li><a href="http://www.defi-shop.com/product/dg/dg_top.html">http://www.defi-shop.com/product/dg/dg_top.html</a</li></ul>

The bezel matches the sport trim really well

Yeah, it is, that's why it says "Besdies AWE option". They are on 45mm gauges.

Default I have my custom CF set going in very soon. Just waiting for enough cash to buy a wideband, then I'm

doing a whole buch of stuff at once. It will be easier because I'll have everyting pretty far disassembled and can do it all and right the first time around.
