does the OEM Mini Boost gauge work with supercharger pulleys or does the mini gauge not go high enough for the boost created by the new pulley?

Even after swapping out a pulley/crank, doubtful you would reach more than 17 psi.

This is really confusing? I see you have a 06, but you are posting in a 2nd gen. thread. I never have seen a OEM boost gauge? Anyway, with all my mods the most boost I see is 16psi.

holy smoke those are expensive! If you haven't bought any gauges yet, check this thread Skip to the last few pages. These are Mini specific and work really well.
