t_g_farrell is on a distinguished road
+1 on the guage.

Factoid: Most guages are only accurate in the center 30% of their range.

I have a 0-15 psi guage from Summit, liquid filled, nice guage but its notoriously
inaccurate for measuring 2.5 psi. I set it using the engine running and let it
out until I hear the rpms pickup and then back it down a bit. It indicates
around 2 to 3 at this point but I can't depend on it being the same from
one time to the next. The 0-5 psi guage from ReSpeed is the best, I may get
one when I go down that way for the Mitty.
