tru-boost seems like a good alternative for 2 boost settings tuning programs like crome. you can have a low and high boost setting for what your needs are....within limits of course. or if your using hondata or somthing, you can use the boost solenoid and have boost by gear and what not.

This gauge is def worth keeping. I have one in my civic and once you figure out how to tweek it your set! Being able to control the leds surrounding the gauge is cool too and having the two boost levels is nice.
