I narrowed down the most important to three: Boost (in case of overboost or low boost could be bad compression or turbo), Water & oil temps (these are obvious and could save your engine). Fuel pressure is nice but isn't vital to watch (set & forget). EGT (well you should have two of them anyhow), A/F (wideband is more acurate). Some of these things are great for tuning or even for repairs but not needed to monitor constantly for a street car.
As for the gauges themselves I wanted Defi but they cost too much. I was going to get Glowgauges but wanted warning lights, so I comprimised on Progauges. Still waiting for them to arrive. They will have a wideband A/F gauge in the future.
For the placement, the center console with the radio is fine with warning gauges. If you don't have the warning version then the tri-pod would be best. The A-Pillar does block some vision.

Personally, for my car I feel the EGT, fuel px and wideband are a necessity. Makes for more peace of mind and better ease of diagnosing problems.
