ya wideband is kinda pointless if your not tunning. its not like your going to be going down the track with your eyes glued to the guage.

Nice, thanks. The gauges on on my list and looks like boost and fuel is the way to go.

I run autometer fuel pressure, boost, and a glowshift wideband. Each gauge serves a purpose and has help me diagnose a problem in the past. A wideband is always good to have, by no means would i turn a car with it that should be saved for the dyno, but the wideband and FP is good to monitor the car if you ever have an injector start to drop out you will notice a different in FP and on the wideband, been there done that.

That's what I run...I also have the bezel pod so the gauges are tucked into the corners of the instrument panel.
