Do I really need all those gauges??

In a word... yes, you do.
They are pretty much all that stands between you and the engine's mortality.
The basic gauges are:

1) EGT gauge (exhaust gas temperature.. best mounted in the exhaust manifold NOT the downpipe!!
2) Boost gauge
3) Tach
4) Trans temp if equipped with an automatic trans.
5) Oil pressure
6) Oil temperature
7) Water temperature
