I was wondering what guages to get (type and brand) that is needed with a s/c. I figured a boost and fuel pressure, but is a/f, oil pressure, etc necessary?

Boost for sure. Fuel Pressure = nice to have. A/F is a light show, if lights flashing on your dash bother you, just say no to A/F!... though I think Autometer actually has a needle a/f gauge... I think it's also just a little smaller than a normal pod.

autometer seems to be the choice to go with, good quality and alot of choices. at a minimum you should get the boost guage and fuel pressure. Hopefully when and if I ever get a sc I would end up getting the a/f ratio guage to. try this site out.

Is there any accuracy difference between electrical or mechanical. I'm looking for anything too fancy b/c I'm not planning on changing my dash anytime soon, and would want something to be somewhat similar for matching purposes.

I use Autometer gauges in my cars. The 03 has a tach, boost gauge, and electric fuel pressure gauge. Very good quality and fitment.

fuel pressure

boost

EGT exhaust gas temperature

those are the 3 to get with a blower. You can also get an intake air temp guage if you like.

Excuse the ignorance, but what information (besides the obvious) does the EGT tell you that is going on with the car???
