I was looking into the S/C also and the Injen intake wil not work with the setup from what I can tell......only the Weapon R supercharger intake seems to be able to work with the S/C.......I am not 100% sure on this but from a few months of questions and searching they are the only one that wil go on..........Weapon R is a great product,give some of their distributers an email or call and talk to them......when I called they even directed me to other products that they did not sell.......

to be honest though electronics do catch people's eyes and make everything look fancy and all but they are just monitoring devices... with s/c's the boost levels are always constant... 7 psi stock s/c... 9.5 with the lightweight pulley.. etc...
with a proper initial tune your a/f ratio's will always be in the money spot whether youre just cruising or WOT... you wont have to worry about running too lean or too rich... as far as the egt gauge goes... you have to be really punishing your car for the temperature to get hot enough to start melting your internals...
IF you have the money to spend on gauges then go for it... IMO they arent neccessary at all once you get tuned and retuned after every substantial engine modification...
a&a autobody in the valley? just curious...
