Turbo/SC Boost gauge

Newb question for the evening - Are turbo gauges and boost gauges interchangeable? Can I get the same information about my supercharger from a turbo boost gauge? I've seen some R53's w/ turbo gauges... Just wonderin'! Thanks for the 411.

Not sure I understand the question... Boost is boost, as far as the gauge is concerned. See here to install your own. I did this, and it's awesome.

Yes. boost is boost whether it's a turbo or supercharger. They are fun to watch while driving and are super easy to install.

Where do you find the pod extender? Is this a direct "Bolt Up" using the extender for the left side of the Tach gauge on the 2006 MCS?
