Dual boost gauge

[ak diesel driver]

found that Hewitt Industries makes a dual boost gauge. I'm thinking of using the red pointer for Drive Pressure. Anybody have a good idea how high the gauge should read for DPs. The gauges they make go all the way from 30-100.

And they have fancy colors too! Red, green, blue, white illumination. Black or white face.

I would think about double the amount of dp as boost on the gauge. So a gauge for up to 30lbs boost and 60lbs drive pressure.

His are the Hewitt ind. ones I've been talking to him about others that he doesn't carry. I'm not planning on running crazy boost was thinking about the 50 psi one

Well like above, double max boost would work fine me thinks...

I looked at them, nice but I couldn't find a price anywhere..

You have to call them to get a price. Kennedy has them for 95$. I read on another forum a year old post that they were buying direct for $135

Worst case drive pressure is 2:1 on GMx. So figure this for GMx and less 1.5:1 on HX40II and ATT turbo's. 30 PSI for GMx should cover it's working range. 40 PSI for HX40II at 24PSI boost.
