Know how mechanical boost gauges are installed just curious how easy is an electronic one to install and what does it connect upto?

The electronic ones are slightly more expensive but obviously have no chance of a boost leak.

http://www.defi-shop.com/product/meter/meter_top.html that might help.They still require a vac feed thaqt could leak that runs to the controller box,then i guess that is then converted to a voltage for the gauge to read.

my Blitz Auto turbo timer has an electronic boost gauge installed. The unit itself sorts out the mechanical to electronic conversion automatically, so it is still connected by a vacuum pipe just the same as a mechanical one...
Your power wires will connect just like any other device....

Maybe you could pick the item you want and see if anyone here has one fitted....
