Quite a few add another water temp gauge to it. I used my pod for additional switches for lights 4 sets and I still have room for 2 more in each if needed. I wanted mine up high where they be easily seen and reached in the dark, instead of under the dash.

The single most important one to add...

The "Money Pit" gauge.

Useless. All you need is an LED hooked up to a RUN circuit for that!

If you care about gas mileage get a vacuum gauge and learn to drive with one.

Run two temp gauges one before the cooler and one after to monitor the system.

The short answer is you keep the vacuum as high as you can when you drive you'll get better gas mileage.If its a daily driver and you drive it pretty far i would get a vacuum gauge.If its more of a weekend toy trans temp gauge.
