I think he was refering to a wideband air/fuel gauge like the EUGO made by AEM which has a wideband Oxygen sensor(much better than crappy stocker)to monitor your A/F and make sure your exhaust temperatures dont rise to a dangerous level. High exhaust temps are a sign of your car running on the lean side which eventually causes detonation. KABOOM!
Running a exhaust temperature gauge(w/probe) or a Air/feul gauge (w/wideband O2) like the AEM are what a large majority of people use on a forced induction car.
If your into guages and monitoring different things these would be the ones to get:
1.Exhaust temp or Air/fuel w/wideband O2 sensor
2.Vacuum/boost gauge
3.Oil pressure
4.Water temp
These should cover the basic gauges needed if your into monitoring your stuff.
DO NOT get the crappy A/F gauge that just bounces a light back and forth. It does not come with a accurate wideband O2 sensor so it would only be for looks.
