#41482, "Nitrous pressure gauge"


          

OK where the heck can you find a Electronic N2O pressure gauge. I've only seen Mechanical ones. I keep hearing, don't get mechanical get electric. OK so where can I find these?

call summit and ask. I called about 2-3 months ago with the same quesion and they said that Autometer had just come out with electric nos gauges. So either che out autometers website or call summit, i think they quoted me like 200 bux though, so they are gonna cost you but i feel it is worth it.

Simple. Just like an Oil Pressure Sensor works. It has a sender, and a wire hookup to send to the gauge. I've heard they aren't as acurate as the mechanical ones. Lemme guess, your worried about running a NOS gauge(mechanical) into the cabin of your car? haha..

Yeah, it sounds like he is and with good reason. Have you ever seen a mechanical gauge blow the face off? Not something you want in you line of sight when it blows up. Mechanicals are the only way I go on all my toys but I mount them outside.

I've got my mechanical on the inside. Though I have a 1100psi pressure lock on the ouside. McMasterCarr... Basically, if the pressure ever hits 1100(which it technically should'nt), the lock prevents ANY pressure from going past that point. Thus protecting my face from the flying gauge faces. emoji

The electric NOS pressure gauge is accurate, at least the one from Autometer, i got one after i posted and put it on and then took it somewhere they refill the bottles asked what psi it was at when they took it off the refill, and hooked it back up in the car and it read virtually the same, i think there was a couple pounds diffrence but nothin major, and i think it is alot safer too but that just my opinion.
