4 Most Important Gauges to Add to Datalogit?

I'm looking into a PLX-DM200 gauge setup. I like that you can interface them and the outputs into the Datalogit software and log various info. My question is what four inputs are the best to help tune and keep a healthy motor?
I'm thinking, wideband, two egt's and maybe fuel pressure?

that sounds pretty good actually. just make sure your wiring is good so your Datalogit agrees with your gauge

My forth input is oil temp but for tuning fuel pressure would be better.

Very nice, that's exactly what I'm going for! Is it true the black Datalogit box can take 8 inputs?

My tan box only handles 4 inputs not sure about the black box. Chuck Westbrook would know.

By the way, no offsets are required for logging on the PLX analog outputs.

Which is another reason I went with the PLX over the Innovative.
The goods are supposed to be here tomorrow. Hopefully get them installed this weekend.
