Will a boost control work with a SC? I went with AEM for my gauges, A/F, Boost and Oil press. You don't need the gauges but there definitely nice to have.

yea you dont really need them. The AEM are really nice, as well as digital. Prosport are also a good and little cheaper alternative.

Definitely get a boost gauge so you can see exactly when you're in boost and when you're not... I have one from autometer that only goes up to like 15 psi so it's easy to read and works well.

I just have a Scangauge and use the map pressure readings to tell when it is edging into boost and also monitor coolant temp, intake air temp, and ignition timing.... More gauges will be coming in the future though.
