The Saab guage pod is no longer being sold -- discontinued I just called today. Anyone know where to get one that might still be in stock?

Find a tuning shop that has a "Y Band" air'fuel engine analyzer that can be plugged into your tailpipe... and dynamically check you A/F ratios across the RPMs you'll operate at... Ideally, you're gonna want your A/F to be somewhere around 10:1 under boost no matter what mods you put on. Second.... Consider getting an oil Temp guage... Greddy makes a nice one... if money's a factor go with one of the less expensive ones... but get one. Monitoring oil temps as well as oil pressure can be very revealing as to the possible state and lubricity of your oil and perhaps telegraph early warning signs that would allow you to avert disaster.... Just my 2 cents
Also, if your oil sending unit is funky and you're not getting accurate guage readings on the stock in/dash guage consider replacing this part... it's located on the drivers side, above and slightly to rear of the #2 trailing plug. As for performance... consider a Racing Beat fly wheel and ACT Street/Strip clutch/Pressure Plate assembly....
