Default If you could only run 2 aftermarket gauges, what would they be?

I'm installing a P1SC kit on my 2000 Silverado. I don't want to run a pillar gauge pod setup. I plan on installing a boost gauge into my factory gauge cluster, so it looks as stock as possible.(Where the stock trans temp would have gone.) I bought a gauge pillar that attaches right behind the steering wheel so I have room for a second gauge.

What other gauge would you install?

A/F ratio?
Fuel PSI?


Just looking to pick some brains.

Thanks fellas!

The aeroforce interceptor gauge would be ideal. You can add sensors for fuel pressure and a/f. That's what I would do.

Aeroforce scan gauge and a Wideband. It's what I have on my truck and there's nothing else I wish I had.

You could go a step further like said and run dual scan gauges with a/f and fuel pressure sensors.

The Areoforce looks kickass, but with a 400.00 price tag it's a bit out of my price range.

What do you guys think the most important thing to monitor would be?

Wideband and boost. When you see that you're going into boost, start watching the wideband.
