Default The big Diesel turbo pickup trucks with big turbos boost upwards of 80+psi.

My boost gauge would be worthless on such a vehicle.

Default having it and actually needing it are two different things

Here's the gage I bought at a discount It should get me by until autometer nexus prices come down.
