Anyone with Omori 45mm boost gauge?

I got one from Jspectuning

Their instructions were pretty vague. I think i have it done... but the needle doesn't light up?!?! and the needle sits at 1psi, it's wrong. I'm ocd and it bothers me.

is this normal??

I have a 45mm mechanical one, and the needle lights up, it also never quite sits at 0.

The needle should light up, mine does. I have the same unit you do but with a red face and white needle. Check the wireing again. Mine also rests just a hint above 0 when the car is off, but I used my snap on gauge and compaired the numbers to what I was getting on this and they seem to show the same on the VACC side, so I would assume the boost side is accurate as well.

Also when i turn the car off... the needle just freezes where ever it is instead of going back to 0

When i turn the ignition to "ON", then it goes to 0... shouldn't it just go 0 when the car is turned off?
