If you gotta BS, might as well BS all the way. This could keep the street light boys in line. BUT you ought to get the needle jammed at, say 25 - to really get their attention!

Just my .02, I think you should change out that boost gauge for a nice clock!!! By the way, what is this boost thing you guys are talking about?

I could get rid of the fuel pressure gauge and put a clock there. That way I would know it's time to make some boost.
