David S. David Kao (?), Sami Dahklia, myself and a few others have installed oil pressure gauges. There was lengthy discussion on this last fall. Generally speaking a 50 dollar vdo gauge with a dual sender (so you can keep your idiot light) seems to be the way to go. Max pressure need not go beyond 90 psi. Trouble is the dual sender is a bugger to install, necessitating some snippage of the tin and a deft hand in threading the sender. While you are at it an oil temp gauge is not a bad idea (though perhaps less crucial for a wasserboxer).
