How high of a boost guage should you get for a 12 V?

Re:How high boost guage to get?
Do you plan on any bombing???

For a stock truck a 30 psi guage should be good....
With performance mods, you may want a 60 psi guage...

You may as well go for the 60lb gauge. You are going to need it eventually.

Don't waste your money on the 30, at some point you are going to need a 60.
