Can we talk gauges?

Setup: 2012 cotyote, roush supercharger ~15psi/700rwhp, fore innovations dual pump 80lb injectors, AEM boost gauge, and tune by Levin motorosports on the now obsolete Ngauge that no one will touch.

The Ngauge monitors coolant temp, lambdas, and some other things but I would like to be able to keep an eye on fuel pressure, oil pressure, oil temperature, and possibly an ethanol content gauge down the road. First of all, would purchasing a gauge with a sender unit be redundant for the mentioned things I want to monitor? If not is there a way to just buy the sending unit and integrate it into the Ngauge? If not are there any better alternatives to a bunch of expensive round gauges and pods i.e. a LED display that is not also a tuner or occupy the OBD2 port (ngauge...). I currently have a two pod a pillar molding, adding the first three mentioned would involve putting 3 more gauges on the dash. Might want a larger Tach too as I can't really look at the gauge cluster when shes singing.

The previous owner built the car, I'm wanting to leave the Ngauge and not f*ck with it. Also I'm all ears if anyone has any input on the raceTCS traction control, or any other, aftermarket TC systems.

I'd just buy the pod kit so finding room isnt really an issue I'd just buy this kit. But 3 AEM gauge kits and that is like almost a thousand bucks. Just seems a bit wasteful when a few sending units that would plug n play with a small led screen would cost less than half that and be a cleaner install. Or even a standard 52mm pod gauge that displays 2 or 4 sensors. It's just a lot of crap for not a lot of crap.
