Gauge or No Gauge

Thinking about running a Cobb Stage 2 set up, and I'm wondering if it's recommended to run boost and/or wideband gauges? Is it sufficient to run data logs from the AP? If so, recommended frequency?

I'm hesitant to go with gauges for warranty reasons. You can un marry the AP, but once the gauges are installed it would be tough going back.

use double side tape, instead of screws.
you can put them in glove box.
you can hide one in that compartment by the left knee.

Right, but you have to tap the lines to be able to read the boost/install the guage in the first place. That's where a dealership would start to ask questions, right? Once they see that kind of modication to to the hoses?

If you are worried about a warranty, maybe modding isn't for you?

That seems a bit extreme for this scenario.
