#73422, "Nitrous Gauge Install"




          

Hey guys, just got another paycheck, so im ready to spend more. heres my question, first, is the nitrous pressure gauge that important? or is it something i can wait on for a little bit. second, how do you install it? i know sorry, pretty noob questions but i searched and yeilded nothing. 2nd, do you think i should get the gauge, or a purge kit? my slightly over minimum wage job only allows for one of those right now. so which do you think i should get, and how do you install both is what im asking i guess. thanks

PS i didnt search about the purge kit as is just popped into my head as i was typing, so if anyone knows of threads about any of the above topics, if you could just put a link up that would be great.

thanks

Well you could go without it but you wouldnt know how much pressure you have in the bottle. Installation is pretty easy, get a T fitting and bolt it on there. thats all she wrote. Unless you want it upfront in the dash area?

Its a matter of running the nitrous line to where you want your gauge and thats it. Unles you get the electric remote gauge for $250.

No dice on the $2500000 electric one. that money is going towards the S-AFC. so i just gotta run a line to the gauge. where do i tap in?

They make a fitting right after the bottle that T's off so you can have a gauge. look at my pic you can kindof see it.

Yeah, if your fitting leaks, giggle gas in the cockpit hile driving emoji
Also, I thought I read somehere that a sudden pressure change can burst the gauge face. Thus spewing chards of glass in your face. This also emoji lol

no no, leaking giggle gas in the cockpit emoji

ya i decided to just get the bottle one, it will be easier and do the job, just wont look as cool, and i wont be able to know pressure without looking at the back... but do i really need to know it all the time? no i dont think so

thanks for your help
