This makes me sad.

I don't have a picture of my gauge at the moment. Its a bit unfinished. Its currently cable tied to the a pillar with the cables kind of sticking out everywhere.

Still, function over form.

Its a VDO 25psi / 30 in hg item. Got it from Midlands Performance centre.

Running the car at 15-17psi. Is that safe?

floor it in 5th and tell me what you get at 3000rpm. also what youget at 6000rpm in 3rd. really you want to be less than 15psi at 6000rpm, less than 16.5psi at 5500rpm. you may notice that your injector light comes on. this is because your making more than 1.1 bar past 5500rpm and cause the peirburgh is disconnected.

Ok, I'll get onto the motorway tonight and check it out. I'm going to see Gary after work today too so I'll ask your question but I don't think he'll want to bum you.

Thats the boost gauge but its a white face and a bit nicer than that.

Icy - Dub Show was a pile of bollox. About 20 cars in total. I had pics but my mate deleted them when i was drunk. Not worth getting up for.

Vibrio -

Floored in 5th @ 3000rpm - 17 psi
3rd @ 6000rpm - 14 psi
Injector light didn't come on, even at 130mph (on private road)

Intercooler - From Norwood radiatiors - Cost £ 340. Gary can't remember the spec.

He may also have a spare Hybrid Turbo for sale in the future if you are interested.
