i looked into it alot and i found that boost, egt, and wideband o2 are most important. at least that is what i think from stuff i have read. Those are the gauges i chose in my car. i have a plx m300 wideband ( bought from a sponsor on h-t) and 2 autometer gauges (bought from summit) And thats it. hope it helps.

If you care... all I use is

(1) greddy electronic boost/vacuum gauge
(1) Zeitronix wideband w/ display. Has EGT also.
(1) AVC-R (dunno if this counts as a gauge)

i have boost, oil pressure, and wideband o2.. i have stewart warner gauges.. they were really inexpensive ($56 for the mechanical boost, and $75 for electronic oil pressure). and they look great..
