I thought it might be funny if i got a gauge and made a face for it or just relabel it kinda so it reads "awesome." i was just wondering if theres a gauge out there that always reads high? or how can i have one that works but i can trick it to read high?
Get a Palm Pre, they have an app for that. You relabel the gauge whatever you want, and as you rock the phone the needle goes up. I labeled it 'Odds of getting some' (g version of what I labeled it) and tried it on the old lady.
If you were willing to pay someone else to do it, I'm sure you could find a custom gauge company. Actually, now that I think about it, I believe justdashes.com does custom gauge work. I couldn't tell you what their prices are, tho.
On a related note, a couple of years ago I was restoring a 75 Porsche 914, and one guy on the forum I posted on started customizing control *****. It was something like a smiley face was the headlight ****, a winking face was the volume control and a big cheesy grin face was the tuner. Guys on the boards loved 'em and he's filled a lot of orders for them.

Wouldn't the oil pressure needle go to full sweep if you replaced the resistor with a plain wire? It'd still "work" as poorly as always and you would be free to relabel it.
