never had any experience with elec, but a quality mechanical is hard to beat, imo. there is nothing to go wrong really. plus they are cheaper....

That's what my friend told me.The electronic ones are for looks.

Re: Boost gauge ?

some of the mech gauges I have used are not very accurate compared to the map log.. and some of the electrical ones go hay wire and show a peak you never really hit..

just my experience.

Re: Boost gauge ?

for the price of an elec, you could have like 6 mechanicals assuming the first 5 do you wrong. choice is simple
