"Boost"- - - - Electrial or Mechanical doesnt really matter only thing that passes thru is AIR. (Mechanical less wires)

"Oil" DEF ELECTRICAL. . . unless u want OIL passing all the way into your cabin. Imagine if line slipped or if OIL started coming thru it. that would suck huh???

Yeah for oil go with electric. Mechanical gauges are more accurate, but I wouldn't want oil coming into the cabin of my car.
