ask the owner of the site.

i got quoted $75 for 30vac to 30psi sport comp black background.

i have also been told of a semi (the trucks) wrecking yard which has boost guages for about 20 bucks, but i can't find it.

Last time I checked, an Autometer boost gauge is only $75 at Mopac on 16th ave. :)

i was thinking of using a semi one out of a truck because they are like 50$ and are the same thing, it is kind of crazy but a vacuum gauge does the same thing and it only costs like 40$ but runs backwards instead, anything to make a buck hey.

I can get some for around 40 bux and they are almost like the ones from autometer. It's a black face, reads both vaccum and boost and goes to around 20 psi I believe. Same size as the autometer but only problem is that it doesn't light up.

Vacuum gauges cant read positive manifold pressure. the highest they go is zero. so that idea is out.
