Default WTB Boost gauge

Just got an 07 wrx today with a few upgrades, but no boost gauge. I have no idea how much boost im running and I dont want to get on the turbo properly until i change the boost to what i want (it has a manual bost controller)

Who has a spare boost gauge lying around for sale?

Ill take a shitty mechanical one i can quickly install and set my boost and take back off. (doesnt need working electrics/lights just need to accurately read boost)

OR

Ill take a newish gauge with a mounting pod or bracket or something for more money

Must have everything needed to read boost

Step 1.

Remove the manual boost controller.

Step 2.

Install oem or aftermarket boost solenoid - Grimmspeed, Cobb, Tuespeed do plug and play 3 port solenoids (if you go aftermarket a tune will be required)

Think I have the oem solenoid off my 02 STI if you want it.

Step 3. Enjoy non over boosting car

Thanks mate but it's running a vf34 and other mods and has a tune. But no boost gauge to see what it's doing. I have a hdi ebc but it needs another part to read boost pressure. I don't want to go to stock boost solenoid as I don't know how it will go with vf34 and tune

Out of curiosity. If I ran your stock solenoid. Is it straight plug in? What boost will it run? And what boost is safe for a vf34 on the 2.5?
