A narrow band is not very accurate and will be bouncing all over the place. Get a wideband.If you are planning on boosting via S/C, the 3 gauges I would get are: A/F, boost & EGTIf you are planning on boosting via Turbo, I would get: A/F, Boost & Oil PressureIf staying N/A, I would get: A/F, oil pressure, voltsVolts & Oil Pressure are all pretty much the same.

I don't know about the voltz guage. Unless you have a really good sound system and a couple of batteries to monitor. I would instead use either oil temp, tranny temp, or coolent temp for the third guage.For the A/F, if you have the money then yeah, go for the wide band. But if your just doing it for mostly show, then the regular a/f guage is still pretty cool.
