The bottom half of the gauge is vaccuum, it is in mm of mercury while the top half is in psi. You only have pressure (psi) when you are using your turbo.. Think of a vaccuum cleaner, what is happening? It is sucking!!! When you have pressure (psi), what is happening, a force is pushing against something. You cannot have pressure in a vaccuum, hence why there is only one needle.

the reason why i got the 255 is because im getting ready to redo mt hole enigne with a new block, head, T3/T04 50 trim, and a greddy front mount off my friend, with a brand new 3" exhaust and downpipe and test pipe, new inj, fuel rail, and a safc, and a new mbc prob or the greddy PRofec B-spec II, and the block comes with new eagle rods it think ill have to look at it again, and probly doing to 6-bolt swap in it at the same time after i sell my 99 gs eclipse that is sitting at my house

Sorry, I didn't direct this to you. I was just making a general statement to the others who are confused and don't know what they should get or need.
