Engine oil pressure gauge. They work great, and look cool to boot.

Ok…but how is an oil pressure gauge better than a temp gauge? I hear of guys with EGC’s and EGUC’s adding temp gauges all the time.

Us guys already have a presure gage and want to ditch the air temp gauge for an oil temp gauge.

Yeah I understand that part. But how is an oil pressure gauge better than a temp gauge? Maybe Ted is just excited about his new trinket.
