I'm setting up an electric water injection system on my mini puller (68 CI 3 cylinder diesel). What is a better boost switch to use? I can get a Hobbs switch that is factory set at 15psi but is adjustable. I can drill & tap the intake pipe for this, or I could go with one of these;

I read somewhere that the Hobbs switch may not do as well in the intake pipe because of vibration the contacts may bounce. The other switch would be isolated by the hose. I'm looking for opinions on which would be better.
Also, I'm going to running a 250psi pump. What are the advantages and disadvantages of running a solenoid valve? Or could I just get away with check valve?
