Wideband display, boost, and oil press/temp. That's all I like.

to see if your running lean or rich due to rising Exhaust Gas Temperatures

i knew what it stood for, but why is it important to monitor? is it so if you can tell if your running lean or rich? i am curious, because, i am getting a gauge pod made for my car to have a boost gauge, but if it is important i will have them add another pod.

my car basically stock minus an intake and ignition. i am wanting to turn the boost up to about 10psi.
