my best advice to you is just get the boost gauge replaced. For some reason in all of the '05's there is at least one problem with the boost gauge. I replaced mine and its working lovely!!!

what do you mean vibrating? the needle is shaking? if so, then you probably have a boost leak.

the boost gauge can tell you things other than just psi levels, don't be so quick to assume that it's a bad gauge.....

where are you located? 12psi in cold weather isn't that bad. and also remember that just because your gauge reads 12psi doesn't mean that's what's getting into your motor.
