The variations are really only dependant on boost pressure, some have a higher scale for higher boost, get the one that you like the look of, isn't
cheap and NASTY, and covers with some margin the level of boost your engine will see.

Also consider an electric boost gauge over one that runs a boost/vacuum line. A lot easier to run wires, rather than the boost line/tube.
