What size boost gauge with minor mods

Going to purchase a set of gauges. My truck has minor mods see signature. What should I get, a 40# or a 60# boost gauge? Do have plans of replacing the Van Aaken box with a Smarty later on. Thanks in advance

I ran a 40 when I was running the stock turbo. If you are planning to go to an aftermarket turbo, then you might want to go to a 60.

I see in your sig that you are planning ISSPRO gauges, I have the EV2's, they are GREAT gauges.
