Whats a vac gauge do exactly?

I have a oil temp, oil pressure and volt gauges. I am adding a A/F gauge and where I am possibly putting it I would like to add another gauge. Or maybe a Fuel pressure gauge? Thanks!

Peace, Thomas

Default EGT...? (edit) found out what EGT was.

The A/F gauge is a split second. I want it because the mods I have done are making the car run lean. It would be nice to monitor the procces and make sure the car is running correctly.

EGT is better indication of running lean/rich then a narrowband 02.
