MBCs are less expensive and more reliable than EBCs, but EBCs give you more flexibility...as for the gauges, it's a toss up, IMHO...

I ditched my autometer mechanical boost gauge for a Greddy electronic gauge. From what I can tell, the response time in the electronic gauge is just as quick as the mechanical.

I'm also using a MBC right now, but my friend tells me once you go electronic u never go back to mechanical.
