gauges or zeitronix +LCD to monitor the car?

just wondering if i should run gauges or zeitronix zt2 w/ lcd to monitor the car. i can either run 3 gauges w/ a wideband gauge or run the zt2 with egt and boost sensors. please give reasons for opinion. the zt2 will be a bit cheaper than gauges.

The only time you'd want to go other route, is if you were running the aem ems (or something similar) where their own wide band increases the functionality of the stand- alone.

i was thinking if i should run zeitronix with gauges. like zt2 plus oil press, oil temp, water temp, etc? which gauges are vital if i run at the road track. if i don't need those then i'm just going to stick with the zeitronix with egt and boost

if the zeitronix is what you want then i would go with the one with the display and add on sensors instead of adding all the seperate guages. like someone said earlier, if you need to, you can hook it up to your laptop too for logging.

how hard is it of follow the digital gauge as opposed to watching a needle sweep? I've heard the digital change so fast it can be difficult to follow. Also, no alarms with the ZT2
