HPOP gauge

I am looking at adding 3 more gauges to my truck. I have oil temp, trans temp, boost, and pyro now. I am looking at adding HPOP pressure, fuel pressure and diff temp. What are yalls thoughts and suggestions?

2 places
1, driverside top of the back of the fuel filter (pre filter)
2, passanger bottom of fuel bowl (post filter) which I like best

I got an adapter from RiffRaff and installed it post-filter in the fuel bowl.

Skip the HPOP gauge... Its worthless without knowing the duty cycle.

Get a scan gauge, fuel pressure and coolant temp...
