Adding gauges -Boost, EGT and Transmission temp

With our new to us 97 F350 7.3 diesel; i want to make sure is well taken care and also, needs to last a good while.
Whats the word out there in adding boost,EGT and Transmission temp gauges.
Are these necessary to have? or a transmission gauge will be all i need?
I already added a second Transmission fluid cooler and filter.

I am not planning on adding any tuners or chip the engine at least in the near future.

    You can look into the Edge Insight CTS2 or a used CTS. It is just a monitor and does not tune anything. I would call Edge or do some research to see if it will display the gauges you are wanting.

    For what they cost I would add them. They all will give not only protection but also diagnostic help if issues arise.
