It'll come w/ all the necessary hardware to complete the installation...
...the only thing you'll need to do is locate a power source that becomes "hot" when the ignition is on to power the gauge, another line that becomes "hot" when you flick the parking lights so that the gauge illuminates w/ the rest of the gauge cluster and possibly a 12v constant if you get teh peak/hold function associated w/ most electrical gauges, and a secure ground.
Electrical gauges differ from mechanical gauges as electrical gauges use a "brain" to translate manifold pressure to a readable analog dial. Depending if you have a peak/hold function only availabe through electric gauges, the "brain" will also keep tabs on those functions. Whereas a mechanical gauge works similar to a tire pressure gauge in the manner on how it measures pressure.
