I can vouch for the latter. I bought and installed the J.C. Whitney gauge and
housing for my GTX; works as advertised (though it seems to take a quick jump
when passing through the 0-5psi range - I'm not sure if this is correct or due
to a kink in the tubing I installed). Isn't often that you take a dollar
shortcut for a piece of equipment and it actually does what you hope.
