Default EGT Gauge Needed?

I'm putting together a turbo setup and i was wondering if an egt gauge is necessary. I've heard mixed answers and i would just like to know for sure. Thanks

not necissary but is useful to keep an eye on what is going on. there is no guage you HAVE to have but there are some that are more important than others. I will be running a EGT and boost guage.

What he said

in order of most to least important:
[boost]
[wideband A/F, EGT, oil pressure]
[fuel pressure]
[ricer **** like voltmeter, water temp, lol (don't take it seriously if you have that stuff)
