Which gauges...

OK it's getting late and I wasn't paying attention and put this thread on the wrong section...anyway old question discussed like a million times, but still wondering if someone could rank the order of which aftermarket gauges are most important? It seems like there are a million choices and I don't want my car to look like a spaceship! I figure boost...then what? A/F? Exhaust temp? Oil pressure? Water temp? I do have a PFC which does show some of these things but I want the info avail at a glance...

Boost and Water temp are two musts...

EGT and Oil Temp would be "nice to haves"

Oil press. is already on the stock gauge cluster... assuming the stock sender is healthy it's all u really need

a narrow band A/F is useless....

driving around with an WB02 all the time will kill the sensor fairlt quickly...

I don't have a PFC, so I'm not familiar with all that they offer. But for "at a glance" I second Ottoman.....Boost and Water Temp.

Utilizing the stock gauges along with a PFC, the only readings not available are oil temp and fuel press. Get a boost gauge and fuel press. gauge and you will have the necessary readings at a glance, then for detailed readings you would use the PFC.
