oil pressure is v.important. will tell you about engine behaviour and potential issues for turbo (e.g. if has no pressure idling when warm, turbo bearing will fail soon).

with water temp and themo fan, you should get a temp-driven switch so you've got one less thing to constantly worry about. maybe an idiot light to tell you when the fan is operating - so when the factory temp gauge looks high you should see the light come on - otherwise, stop engine and check. You could wire up an override to bypass a thermoswitch but base your use of it on the factory gauge - you'll soon recognise when it's above normal operating temps.
