Message	a mechanical? I'm going to be getting a new fuel pressure gauge and I currently have a cheap mechanical one for temporary. I'm relating the fp guage concept to the boost controller/w boost gauge concept. People say that getting a boost gauge is more accurate than a boost controller that has a built in gauge (for reading boost). Ok, so this makes me think that a mech. fuel pres. gauge is better than electric because it's more accurate. Can someone explain to me the differences and why you shouldn't go with a mech. gauge?
