opinions on boost gauges

Well just wanted to hears others opinions on what analog boost gauge they prefer? I run a analog autometer 30/30 , with the winter my car tends to boost a little higher and seeing my gauge reads to 30 psi I want something that reads higher. I'm not saying I plan to boost much higher but it would be nice to see where its boosting to so I can adjust my mbc . I see that autometer has a 30/45 gauge and may get that but just wanted to hear about anybody's experiences with other gauges out there. I also like the Defi gauge but there kind of $$$$.

I have a Defi gauge for my car. I love it! Very accurate but, the gauge is definitely pricey...

I am running into this same issue. I am running the AEM Failsafe and it will only read to like 29 PSI- So I am going to get the AEM 50 PSI digital gauge as well.
