Banks or isspro has them. I have used my gauge from banks for probably 15 years now. Its not as bright as the EV isspro gauges but it still works.

I have one of those, topping out at 15 PSI. It's a VDO gauge. Here's a picture, with what is probably a model number.

Thanks for the info. I'm dying to get this big ugly hypermax combo unit off the top of my dash. It also has a high boost range on the dial, so my little 0-6or7 pound boost is hardly noticeable on the gauge.

Do they make those pillar gauge holders for the 89 models? I know they couldnt be easily had for my 86.

Id ask a dumb question like why youd want a 0-15 gauge since itd be pegged half the time (or really close). As far as the pillar pod get one for an OBS and trim the bottom edge off.

Most of these kits arent putting out much more than 8-9psi, so it should work well with them. A 0-30psi seems to large for almost all of us, heck even with the wastegate unplugged mine would only make it across half the gauge. A 0-20psi gauge would be nice, but I have only seen those as a vacuum/boost gauge and I hate that.

Got my wastegate set to 13psi and I hit that by 2300rpm (ATS 093), with a hot IP properly timed at least the ATS kit can hit 20+ psi

What's wrong with a digital gauge?

Most don't zero right at anything except sea level (or if they do don't adjust for elevation changes) so they show a vaccum when there isn't one.

We stock the 0 to 15 ISSPro gauge, as well as the 0 to 30.

I have a 0-15 ISSPRO "Manifold pressure" gauge. Same thang.

Now that I think about it Justin, you were the one that posted the link for me last time I asked about the low number gauge. Its just been so long ago, I couldnt remember who I heard about it from.cookoo
