electrical boost gauges have a sending unit that turns boost into an electrical signal that it sends to the display. they are more accurate. With the mechanical gauge you have to run tubing to the gauge and they tend to be not as accurate.
What is this crap?

I saw arturbo's Greddy boost gauge...it looks like a GM MAP Sensor is the 'sending unit'. I could be wrong about it being GM it was dark...
