Fuel Pressure, EGT and Boost.
Fuel Pressure due to the lift pump issues on most all years from 98-06. If the LP goes, your VP44 (Inj Pump) won't last long.
EGT due to...Well you know how things like to start melting at 1300+ deg (sustained)!
Boost due to it giving you a good diagnostic tool that will let you know if you have a boost leak, fueling issue, etc...
