Dash Boss?

Hey guy's, I currently have a SG II for monitoring my 6.0. I was thinking of upgrading to a Dash Boss because I can add fuel pressure and egt to it. I was doing some reading on the dash boss site about adding fuel pressure. Apparently .5 volt input is needed to make the gauge work. Is this easy to do and wire up? The EGT part looks simple enough.

I recently purchased the fuel pressure sensor for my DashBoss but haven't had a chance to install it yet. Instead of taping into an existing sensor to get the 5Vdc I'm considering installing a 12Vdc to 5Vdc converter. To me this is a cleaner set-up that splicing into another sensor's wiring.
