What sort of gauges would you all go for, electroinc or mechanical. and in the case of the boost gauge is it any use having one that also reads vacuum?

I am trying to get mechanical gauges as I don't trust sender units as they can tend to drift out of calibration.

However I may end up using them as they do give a neater solution when fitting.

As for boost gauge, you are only really interested in boost pressure, but you will find the majority of boost gauges available will read both vacuum and pressure. If you plumb it in after the throttle butterfly it will work in this way as well.

i'm running an electrical oil pressure gauge and i've had no problems with it yet apart from the backlight giving me loads of interferance through the stereo. I check it now and again against a smiths mechanical gauge just to make sure its reading right.
