Default Any Suggestions on which sensors to buy?

Im about to do my swap, I have a built ls/vtec with:

Sleeved LS 2.0L
JE pistons 9.0:1
Eagle Rods
Stock Crank
Crower bearings

Type R Head
Type R Cams
Skunk 2 Valves
Skunk 2 Retainers
Skunk 2 Springs

Edelbrock IM
Edelbrock TB
Edelbrock Fuel Rail
AEM FPR
Edelbrock Super Victor Direct Port Nitrous (probably a 250 shot just havent decided yet)

AEM EMS

Now my question is.. I am going to run nitrous until I can afford to buy the turbo setup. Then I will still be running a small nitrous setup with the turbo when I get it. I alread have a Wideband O2, But my question is What sensors should I add or upgrade the stock ones for the ems to monitor the most important inputs? ex. EGT, MAP, IAT, Coolant Temp, Head Temp, Oil pressure, Oil Temp.... I only need suggestions for my nitrous setup for now, because its gonna be a while before i can go turbo. so I dont really need to buy the turbo sensors now. Also do you guys think I should go ahead and upgrade my injectors now or just wait until I turbo, I plan to buy 1000cc injectors once I go turbo, but would it be helpful to just do it now with the nitrous setup?

Thanks for the help,
J-MAN

For a 250 shot, and since you have the AEM EMS; If it were me, I wouldn't go below 400cc.

Hope this helps!

AEM says you can just use the stock sensors, But since my car doesnt have an EGT sensor im curious if i should add one? Especially for nitrous.
