Default Boost Controller + Boost Gauge

Is anyone doing this?
Is there even a point since boost gauges show boost levels?
I'm curious.

How many people use a boost controller as a boost gauge, or do you run a boost controller and a boost gauge?

I run both, but don't really think it's necessary.... I prefer to see a needle rather than the digital number on my eboost, but may consider swapping it out for a trans temp gauge. The biggest reason that both are in there right now is because I started with a manual boost controller then put the eboost in my vent and left the other gauges alone.

I'm running the AEM unit that acts as a controller and gauge in one. I like it and it was a very simple install
