You could buy any boost gauge that you want.

You could up the boost a little, but you would best leave this to a pro as they would need to check that the engine isn't running too lean as you could end up with holes in your pistons

A new air flow sensor would be a worth while purchase as the ones on your year tend to have a habit of failing, and at 85+ vat brand new aren't dear compared to some. these are treated as a service item by some because of the failure rate and will cause the problem with the lean mixture without uping the boost

Not trying to be rude, but why on earth do you want something, when you don't even know what it does?
