Depends on your fuel setup really. If you are running higher than normal fuel pressure you'd probably want a fuel pressure gauge. If you are running normal fuel pressure I wouldn't bother with an FP gauge personally.

Not sure if you are considering a wideband separately or not, but besides wideband I'd get boost pressure and oil pressure at least.

unless its a wideband setup, an a/f guage is just a waste of $60 unless you like the pretty sweeping led's.

Yeah...
That was one of the first gauges alot of supra guys get...
I had a wideband when I had mine, so thats what I was refering to. A narrowband is a waste of time.. very true
