I have the SpeedHut oil pressure gauge. You can have them make you a custom gauge.

I went with Defi for my gauges. The price difference comes from both name branding and a bit of "you get what you pay for". Whatever you decide, get one that can do 150psi. I can hit 105-110 on first startup if it's cold outside

This is the agony I went through for a triple gauge swap. I believe a few others run these particular Defi gauges because they look very close to stock. That's half the reason I picked them anyway.

I just installed a Prosport PS104 yesterday and I'm happy with it for the price. The needle isn't as smooth operating as OEM but I'm only using for reference of galley gasket failure so it serves the purpose.
