EGT and Fuel Pressure Gauge Installation Q

Hey peeps.

I'm looking at adding either a Exhaust Gas Temp Gauge or a Fuel Pressure Gauge to my turbo fit. I've already got boost, oil temp, water temp, and a wide band O2 gauge, but I have room for 2 more gauges in my DIN gauge pod. I'm gonna put in a oil pressure gauge as I know that one is a simple install since I already have an oil sandwich plate, but I'd like to know what is involved in installing either an EGT or Fuel Pressure gauge and which one you believe is more important to have and how hard the installation of the sensors are.

Thanks in advance.

EGT requires getting a bung welded into the exhaust i think... I honestly thing both are equally as important. If you have only room for one id go Fuel Pressure.

Do you know what is involved with installing the fuel pressure sensor on our cars?

after doing some searching online it looks like some ppl just make their own "T" adapter/junction and put it inline with the rubber fuel line.. i wonder if there's a safer way of doing this..
