I recommend AEM for the UEGO, good, cheap and proven. The others are going to be user preference. We have a lot of AEM gauges in stock, and can offer a package price if you want to get say boost, oil pressure and a UEGO.

I run an AEM UEGO wideband and I absolutely love my Stewart Warner Boost/Vac, Exhaust Gas Temp, and Oil Pressure gauges.

Yes it's nice to have.

But definitely get Boost and Wideband first.

I would even get EGT before oil pressure - but that's me.

Prosport gauges FTW. They make my UEGO look like such a piece of ____.
