mechainal boost gauge

I am looking for some input and recommendations for a boost gauge for my supercharger. There are so many out there I have read so much info my brain is mush. I am wanting to keep it simple. I don't need one for data logging shift light, down loading data all of the above. I am thinking a mechanical one just to show boost pressure because I m old school.
Dont want a throw away but don't want to spend 200. to 300 dollars. Anybody running a decent dependable gauge that doesn't need a Electrical Engineering degree to install. thx in advance for your input. Steve

I run a mechanical Pro-Sport gauge that cost me fifty bucks or so. Some people have criticized me for it, but it is as accurate as I need it to be and more than gets the job done. I am not one for going broke on high end DEFI gauges. The only one I could see spending some cash on is the AEM Failsafe because it kills two birds with one stone and allows you to consolidate dash area and not have to run one of those ricer pillar pods. But the failsafe features it offers can be done with Ecutek RaceRom

thx partner, that's the route I think I am going to go for no more money than they are. I am going to get all my data logging through the ecutek. Thx again Steve
