Years back I came across a 30 Vacuum - 0 - 30 Boost gauge with a red needle that moved freely and told by its position what the highest boost you ran. Then you just moved it by hand down on top of the actual needle that read the vacuum - boost. It was distributed by Blower Drive Service in Whittier, CA, but did not carry a manufacturers name on it. Very convenient and mounted on the steering wheel post in my Turbo-T. Haven't been able to find another, and none is listed in the Blower Drive Service on-line catalogue.
 
or you can make your own

Or, you can go to Autozone, Advance Auto, Pep Boys and buy an analog tire pressure gauge with the dial that stays at the pressure in the tire...the one with the button that you press to return dial to zero. Just cut the air chuck off the end and plumb into your vacuum/boost line! Cheap and works great.

Thanks everybody for the suggestions, I think that the one that BobbyBuick has looks most interesting. Thanks again.
