Boost Gauge Pressure Sending Unit Problem

I THINK the other terminal is for an external ground wire, though the good Dr. Porsche never included a wire to that location (I'm presuming that he presumed that the sender mounting point was a good enough ground by itself). It may come in especially handy for folks that have their sender mounted directly to their "rubber mounted" IC. Put an ohm meter between it and where the sender mounts and see if you get continuity.

That makes perfect sense now that you mention it. I was kinda hoping I could attach a second boost gauge to it....one that that went to 2 bar. Rats
