Only one car here has both that I'm aware of. I have a stocker in my SSEi, and had to add one to my SC/SLE because it never came with one. I prefer the stocker, and have found mine to be pretty accurate.

I have an SSEi and I have an aftermarket boost gauge. Accurate or not the stock gauge is pegged so I upgraded.

Depends on your amount of boost. The stock only reads 10 I think. If your over that you will want an aftermarket gauge. If you don't trust the accuracy of the gauge you can upgrade as well.

One for the gauge, only on SSEi'*. NONE for the PCM. But the MAP for the gauge goes through the PCM to the gauge IIRC. The PCM just doesn't use it for any other function (fueling, timing, etc.)
