Default What three additional gauges would you want on your S4?
My brother is getting an aftermarket stereo system installed so he can add three gauges in the extra space provided by a smaller head unit. Boost gauge is obvious, an oil pressure and temp gauge? Is the stock oil temp gauge accurate? Any other suggestions? I'll get him to post pics when he is done. I'm trying to steer him away from using carbon fiber trim around the replacement panel. I think brushed al would look cool (Nogaro/Black).

Default depends on level of mods in engine.
i've he's done a whole lot, or plans on doing more, get Air/Fuel ratio and Exhaust Gas Temp gauges.

Default Stage II right now, though he plans on a Stage IV if APR gets their GT25 kit going
EGT is a good suggestion. What benefits of the A/F meter could be monitored?

EGT (maybe 2, 1 for each bank), oil pressure, maybe A/F ratio or Fuel pressure.

Default I would say...
air and temperature gauge, elevation gauge, compass, sound decible gauge, tire pressure gauge.
Sorry, I can't think of too many. My mind is limited.
