Default S/C Gauge Question

I have a 2006stage 1 roush and recently ordered a P-1SC procharger for my car. The place where i ordered the s/c asked me if i was getting gauges also. Are gauges necessary, boost ect? I should be running around 450 rwhp on my stock engine. Andalso,how much does forging internals usually cost? I ordered the s/c a couple days ago and it takes 2 weeks to custom make it. I already cant sleep! [&o]Thanks for the help!

gauges are not essential, but could come
in handy for troubleshooting

The 4.6 motor is a strong motor and able to easily withstand the stock output. Unless it's been beaten on without mercy, I would say it's far from being too late
