WHich EGT gauge is everyone using w/the westach probe?(the westach guage?)
Is 0-1600*F enough for our cars w/stage 2 turbo?

I just used the WEstach Guage myself, but it's not very pretty. Many others like Autometer types. Get whatever suits your taste. It doesn't matter. (either Pyrometer or EGT)

Many find that 0-1600 is just fine. If you're over 1600 degrees on stock 420a internals, you're too hot. You're really in the major leagues of tuning if you're comfortable at the 1600+ level.
