The four gauges I use on my Scangauge are:
1) coolant temp - This helps get through the warm up stages faster, and let me know how much heat I can use.
2) rpm - I use this to gauge my acceleration. I keep it between 2000 and 2500.
3) gas pedal position (SG programmed gauge) - This shows how far the gas pedal is pressed down. Its useful for EOC P&G and coasting with or without using battery power.
4) battery amps (SG programmed gauge) - This tells how many amps are being drawn out of or put back into the hybrid pack. Its very useful for feedback on how much you can regen brake before the physical brakes kick in. It also shows you if you're using battery power to accelerate.
I'd recommend a SGII for a hybrid. Those two gauges are quite important IMO.
