Boost, oil pressue, Wideband O2 AFR, EGT are the major ones to get.

dont get an AFR guage if its narrowband, unless you like pointless lightshows.

and if you feel the need for another guage, Id recommend a temp guage, since ours is really just a dummy guage. Its either cold, operating temp, or overheating. It really doesnt read out actual temperature.

unless you're running an aftermarket ECU, o2, egt, wideband, etc are useless and only eye candy. stock ecu, stock boost, all you need are boost pressure - to make sure everything stays connected, oil temp - to make sure you're not boosting before the oil has had time to warm up properly, and maybe oil pressure - to make sure you're alway getting proper circulation. andything else is a waste of money. IMHO...

1. Boost gauge
2. Oil pressure
3. Oil temperature

If you are planning on road racing, drag strip, etc you may also want to get a water temperature gauge, but that's not really that important. When you get around to doing some tuning, then get a wideband gauge and sensor or EGT.

boost gauge and oil pressure very important because there alot of problems with boost and oil consumption
