No,
I bought it here:

All I had to do was make an adapter ring, as the mount is designed for 60mm dia gauges, and the AEM gauge is 52.5mm dia.

looks like this:

It can read both boost and AF a the same time. Either PSI on the OLED in the middle and AF on the outer-rings LEDs, or vice versa.

I have this gauge but a dual instead of single. Also made by blockhead

Not sure on his normal price. I worked out a deal because I have a shop.

We have just been modifying the factory gauge bezel.

Yeah that's basically what I did. But just a heads up, you don't even have to do any bondo work on it. There is room to simply hole saw into that side and put in a gauge. Very simple.

I might redo mine though over the winter. The advantage of the bondo that I see is that you can angle it up and out a bit more.

But really, just drill a hole and put a gauge in. Pretty easy.

I'm running the aem fail safe as well.

We use a piece of angle cut wood to get the angle a bit better. Then epoxy to attach the wood, and bondo to make sure it all flows well together. I felt with just putting the gauge strait in it faced a bit to far to the left, but we will give it a second look next time we have one apart.

i put my (60mm) boost gauge in the vent (no adapter thing, no need really it fits without it). for everything else i use my iphone in a holder, it can be whatever 3 gauges i want. right now it's set up for coolant temp, ltft and lc1 o2. i hate gauges in general, especially in this car there is nowhere good to put them. unless you do the molding like the guy above, but i dont' have skills like that
