Whatever floats your boat I guess
The answer lies in the intended use of the car and the HP level.

The casual tuner can easily get by with the logger and the display on the Pro. Especially if they run the logger all the time.

For tuning on the edge, you want to know if things are going lean as soon as you can. The gauge displays are great for this.

In my GN, I use the XD-1 gauge with the LC1. In my Stealth I have a Scanmaster showing the wideband reading from an LM-1 full time.
