Automatic? If so a tranny temp gauge would be a good idea.

Boost definitely. Tranny just for sound of mind.

As far as a Fuel pressure gauge it is not needed nearly as bad on a 12v as opposed to 24v's because of the the whole VP44 and lift pump deal on the 24v's, but I'll let the 12v guys chime in and take over this one

It never hurts to know the FP on a 12 valve

although it really isnt needed... I have an incab setup and its just all around convenient, and cool

I say do the basic 3 gauges...

Fuel pressure, Boost, Pyrometer...

If you got automatic trans... Add in that gauge too..

Just my 2 cents worth
