Default Gauge question

Which 2 gauges are the most important for running an x-charger and what is the best company to buy them from to fit into this.

I am guessing boost and wideband A/F?

Just out of curiosity, why would you go with the Ricer add on gauges rather than the Mustang fit ones? No offense meant, but I have seen those gauges on far too many civics and wanna be racers that put "oil level" and "boost" with nothing boosting lol

LOL so you basically just called half the members of mustangforums.com ricers then, because those are the most popular gauge cluster for most people here. How can RACING gauges be rice? 90% of all muscle cars use those type of gauges?

And explain what a Mustang fit guage is exactly? So am I still ricer by adding a A/F gauge and boost gauge if I get a supercharger?

I guess I read it wrong then, because it sure sounded bad to me

I can't stand those gauge clusters on top of the dash, I love the dash because of the retro look and just don't want anything there.

I can see having these big ugly gauges on the a-pillar, but the ones I posted are small and look good. Look at the pictures, how can you think they dont look good?
