Default Gauge advice

getting ready to do a very serious turbo build. What gauges besides boost do you guys recommend as a must have. Im thinking fuel pressure and oil temp?

Also, what brand gauges are the best out there right now? What about all digital gauges? I would like to mount the gauges so they cannot really be seen, going for the whole sleeper thing...any pics of where you mounted yours for such an idea?

oil pressure.
a wideband really helps, as well as an exhaust gas temperature.

Stewart Warner makes some really nice gauges.

I have boost, EGT, oil pressure, and wideband.

Everyone is going to have a different opinion on this. The four I have are IMO essentials in a boosted Honda.
