Default Defi gadge in psi

When I brought my hawkeye it came with defi's which is good but the boost gauge is in psi and not bar as I would like. I've been told that the psi gaudges are more for the U.S. market. What I want to no is, is there a market over here for them so I can put it on eBay to sell and get one in bar. Or is it not worth it and just keep it as it is

Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers
James

i have always much preferred my boost in psi, purely because its a better, more precise scale to read (eg; 14.5psi per 1 bar, easier to see if your not making correct boost and what exact boost you are making)

Mine is 60mm bf in amber. I've just always used it in bar. But no what you mean about being more procise in psi

I bought my set of 4 from the states and my boost, Fuel pressure and oil pressure are in psi, Makes no difference it's just a matter of personal preference and the fact I couldn't get an amber set over here.

The controller will let you know if there is an issue once you have set the warnings, It's just a visual thing IMO
