More than basic gauges

What other kinda gauges are a good idea past the EGT/trans/boost?
I've already decided on a engine coolant temp and a fuel pressure. What others are a good idea?

I already looked for an autometer one and didn't see one.
I decided to put up a 4 pod pillar and one of those pods that wraps around the steering column. Are those steering column ones any good?

I have a steering column single pod and I like it. It's where I keep my tuner controller. I would recommend using some super glue to install it though cause the double stick tape that comes with it is useless and the little push tabs don't do a good job of holding it in place. The shifter hits it a little when going into park so I can't just throw up the shifter. I could trim a little plastic too, but it doesn't really bother me that much.

Overall it's a good, handy gauge pod. I think mine was made by Autometer but I think i got it on ebay so who knows...

My next pod will be an overhead triple

EDIT: Here's a pic of mine at night. I'm trying to see if I have one taken during the day.

Those look great. I'm sure I'll wind up with gauges all over the place one day :woot:

So the steering pod kinda puts it right in the middle of the tach?

where did you guys pick up the other gauge pods at? I was looking around and just found the A Piller pod.

When I get gauges, beyond the normal ones, I also want to get a voltage gauge. I think it would be nice to have one..
