I would get a oil pressure gauge. Autometer makes descent gauges for a good price. In "my" experience they are very fragile, and break VERY easily. I broke an egt gauge twisting it around like 15 degrees in the gauge pod , snap, the needle fell straight to the bottom. My friend has greddy gauges, expensive, he dropped one from a standing position on accident and it was fine. So the lesson of the whole story is you get what you pay for. Autometer are fine just be careful.

Greddy gauges are by far the best buy when it comes to quality for price. I would get their electronic non peak boost, electroni peak hold EGT, and maybe an Oil gauge though you don't need it but is still nice to know.
