I am looking to buy 2 gauges for my car but I dont know what I should buy. I think I may end up with 3 and replace the boost gauge.
So what should I get for the other 2? Also what is easy to install?

The most useful gauge IMO would be a wideband O2, narrowband is just a fancy lightshow. The second gauge I'd get would be fuel pressure (electrical obviously since it sits rearward of the firewall...so it'd be expensive.) Another one to consider would be oil temp.

AFR and oil temp. If you are actually interested in monitoring your cars performance then get an AFR with a wideband sensor if you just are doing it for show get the normal AFR. If you don't want oil temp you could get a EGT, or voltmeter if you are doing some electronic stuff to your car.

Well I am putting the Stage 2 in over the winter and that may be my last performance mod for a while. I think the gauges may be more for show at this point.

my gauges with turbo will be boost/vacuum, oil pressure, and tranny temp, i was gonna get air fuel but its not needed for me since i wont be tuning and i dont wanna pay $400 for a gauge
