Nitrous PSI is helpfull
an air/fuel ratio gauge is annoying but helpfull to see where you stand as far as that.

Only worth it if you have a wide band. If you don't it's just a fancy light show.

yea get the wideband If you have like 400 bucks. i think it might be worth it if your always changing tunes. Also you need a fuel pressure guage. That will show you if your at the right fuel pressure.

But it might be cheaper to just put a focus pump on it and have the A/F ratio checked, if you wanna go the budget road.

You most definately need some sort of bottle pressure guage. Before everything else. I use it all the time and it shows if the pressure is too much.
