Thanks man, really appreciate the info and the idea. I just bought a digital boost gauge that also shows the s/c intake temperature. I plan on upgrading both upper and lower pulleys and installing a larger intercooler. This gauge will let me see the effect. Here's a photo of a similar gage for a turbo charger and a diagram showing dimensions. I'm pretty sure I can make everything fit. Thanks again for the GREAT idea.

One last question, where did you get the 1.59 inch diameter chrome ring?

I turned it up on a lathe from a piece of alumium/aluminum bar to match the OEM rings on the main instruments. That was the easy bit!!
