Default What Gauges do I NEED??

Hey guys, i was curious to get some feedback to what gauges I NEED. I tossed the boost gauge with the turbo, tossed the volts gauge, cuz who uses a volts gauge? Not Me! So I was left with just my Oil Pressure gauge, which I relocated to where the cruise control switch goes. Looks Factory. I was considering getting an A/F gauge but hear they are worthless unless its wideband??? What do You guys think? Really only want one more gauge if I can get away with only having two....??????

a/f gauges are worthless unless they are wideband, and thats my official opinion, the innovate gauges are nice, but the bosch sensors are complete and utter junk, im on my third sensor in less then 4 months. So make sure you dont use it to simulate the factory o2 sensor like i did, have an extra o2 bung welded in.

Oil Pressure & Water Temp are you two most important things you would want to monitor....

I have one of each mounted on the "A" pillar, and only because i was having issues with the oil pressure light coming on when the motor really did have oil pressure, due to a short in the wiring.

If you do go with an oil pres gauge and u want a mechanical one (thats what i put in) make sure u spend the extra like 10 bucks or w/e it is and get a copper line to run it with instead of the nylon line that comes with it...nylon does nothing but leak within time.
