Personally I'm not a believer in a guage that I have to watch instead of the track as I've got the gas floored. Oil pressure sounds like your best bet, to me.

I use the one on the dash cluster. I'm pretty sure it'll set off a red idiot light if the pressure drops to zero, as well, but I haven't actually seen that light.

a/f will show you a idea if your engine is okay and fuel pressure will basically let you know how well the n20 is running since it shows you how much you fuel has. take a pick

i would pick a/f guage
