Boost Gauge... Mechanical or Electrical?
What are you guys running?
I need to get a Cobalt boost/vac gauge to match my others and was pondering which to get. My Fuel and N2O gauges are electrical but Autometer's prices have gone up drasticly since I purchaced them.
There are no hazards with running a vac line into the cab but the sending unit on an ele guage would allow me to input boost/vac into HPT. My budget is telling me mechanical but the engineer in me is saying electrical.
