Boost & oil pressure will do, afr is worth a look if your tuning yourself or want to generally keep an eye on things, i wouldnt bother at a lower state of tune though.

Loads of places sell the boost/oil pressure gauges, id personally go for mechanical capillary type as im not a big fan of electric.

Keep away from cheap and nasty f&f or tim gauges, innaccurate as you like?!

Scoff sells the aem 52mm wideband gauge in his shop.
