What guage to get

Workin on my F650 Dash I got the little DP tuner holder deal installed so next is switches think i might go with the stock 05 upfitter switches, but I have room for one more guage what should I get? I was thinking either fuel pressure or one for the HPOP. any other suggestions.

Fuel pressure would be the best one for useful information, but the HPOP is more fun to watch, LOL.

HPOP is useful too -- it's nice to see if you have HP oil when troubleshooting no start problems. But fuel pressure is also good to know. I have both. You might consider a Scan Gauge. I think it's a great 4th gauge option -- tells you a ton of info for about the same as a dedicated HPOP gauge. And you can add a fuel pressure sensor to it if you want.
