I'm also doing an A&A kit next week. AEM has a failsafe wideband that also reads boost. I'm going to do that one gauge and call it good. I'm going to have my shop do the failsafe on a relay with a resister on the IAT circuit then adjust the tune so that if it triggers it pulls a bunch of timing. Summit has them for $299. When you figure in the cost for a wideband and boost gauge, it's actually a better deal to get the failsafe gauge since it's two in one. Plus you can mount it without buying a pillar pod, saving even more money.

Boost, fuel pressure, meth light and maybe afr but you're not going to "keep eye on" any of them when you're in boost. The only one I can see in my peripheral vision is the meth led.

I agree its impossible to watch gauges when your in the throttle. For that reason a gauge with a user programmable, visual or audible alarm is a good idea. I use aeroforce and I'm sure there are others with these features.
