what is a wideband gauge?

I would say Trans Temp because you already have an oil pressure gauge.

Nitrous Pressure and Fuel Pressure are a must...

Air/Fuel Ratio would make sense to have...

Please don't get the A/F ratio gauge unless you have it wideband. If not not it's just a freakin light show
