For those of you now running an Electronic Boost Controller do you even use a boost gauge or does the read out from the EBC suffice? Wouldn't the boost gauge be redudnant? Please correct me if I'm wrong but I can't figure out why you'd need both.

I would certainly have both. If the EBC goes insane and overboosts, I wouldn't trust it to be accurate while it tries to blow the engine to bits.
