Re read the post I said a minimum of 60. I wouldn't get anything less because you know the mods don't stop and if he grinds the fuel plate to the profile of a 100 the motor will make more than 35 psi with a stock turbo. Usually the below 0-60 is 0-35. I would rather by the gauge one time even though I might not hit 60. If I would have settled on the 35 psi I would be pegging the gauge all the time.

My EGT gauge goes to 1500 and the was the highest reading gauge a person could purchase in 2000.

I tow as well and if I start seeing 1300 I back out of the fuel.

if your leaving it stock i still would bother getting a 60 since anything over 35 is wasted anyway, i ran a 35 gage for years even with an aftermarket turbo anything over 35 isnt effeicent unless you have a big turbo

You know that once they are bitten by the extra fuel the turbo purchase isn't far behind. If I was just starting on mods I too would purchase the 60psi gauge along with an EGT gauge.

depends on the person and what the truck is used for. theres a good ole boy hear with no guages running a 215 pump, lazer dvs, 370 ddp3 injectors with just a pyro and stock wh1c turbo(which is smaller than the hx35) all he does is tow his 37' toyhauler to camp sites

Great at least he has an EGT gauge which is the main gauge to have and what others have been trying to tell young gun to get before he mese with the fuel plate.
