The ones that are critical are the ones I use.That is if I see something not rite I can help prevent a problem.Boost is nice to see but what good does it tell you to help your motor?All I see out of it is bragging rites.Now oil psi is different.The so called gauge is NOT a guage.It is a form of idiot lite.It does not move up or down when the engine rpms change!Put guages in that you will use!And to help prevent damage.I run a fuel psi gauge and egt [2 channel].Then an idiot lite for the oil psi as well as an accusump system for oil.And thats it!A/F guages look nice at nite but are to inaccurate to be used for anything else.EGT tells you the a/f indirectly in that as temps go up the a/f goes lean.Get the idea?But it is up to you.buy what you want.the NO2 guage is a good one to start with.Stan

I am in Japan for about three more weeks. I have about $15,000 worth of stuff at the house for the truck including a built long block with Crower Stage II cams, nitrous and all the other goodies. I have a ton of bling too, Sir Michaels roll pan, 20" rims and too much other stuff to list. I will be adding a KB in October of next year.

I went with trans temp, oil pressure, and fuel pressure on the pillar and water temp and boost on the column. I attached an Autometer gauge cup onto my steering column pod (a la Easterisland). I was going to go with an Pyrometer, but decided to go with a wideband sometime this winter instead.
