None except for an accuracy issue- gauge accuracy is usually 2% or 5% of FULL 
SCALE deflection, so a 0-15 psi carbureted gauge will be much closer to 
correct than a 0-100 psi gauge if both were connected to the same fuel pump. You 
might be able to 'tweek' the accuracy in the gauge works if it makes any 
difference to you. FWIW- J Deryke
