I picked up the gauge from JC Whitney for $12!! It matches the stock gauge cluster almost perfectly. It's showing me that my boost pressure is low, only 7lbs between 3K & 5K, I'm thinking it's the wastgate, but I need to do some searching first.
It would be interesting to install a power inverter and instead of two 12v sockets, one 12v and one 120v plug. It would be fairly easy and not cost that much to do, maybe $40 tops. Overall looks pretty good.
