A gauge to see if the car is rich or lean would be right up there.

Wideband then Boost. I have the wires in there for a fuel pressure guage but it sees little action.

Well, each gauge serves a purpose; to help the driver understand how the entire system is operating

I'd get a 3-gauge A-pillar bezel for WB O2, Boost, Fuel Pressure.

Then engine oil temp, aftermarket oil pressure (and trans temp if you have a stalled auto).

.....That Garrett impeller-speed gauge would be sweet too But then again I like the look of a fighter jet cockpit...
