My boost controller reads a little less than my my boost gauge. The controller has a tube going from all the way in the engine compartment to the interior of my car while the gauge has just like a foot or two of tube that goes from the throttle body to the little black thing that measures the pressure. Which one is more accurate?

Mine does the same exact thing and i have the boost gauge hose comin from the same hose as the boost controller.... its a lil wierd but i would think the digital is more accurate IMO.... but i could be wrong.
