Gauges (Nitrous and Nitrogen Pressure)

All, I'm curious as to what you guys are using in the way of gauges. I'm about install the Nitrogen/Nitrous system I scored off the forum, and am trying to figure out a gauge setup for pressure on the two bottles.

Functionality is important but also want something that looks good. I'm even interested in going ole skool and stick them out on the hood! I would love to get some feedback as well as pictures if possible.

Thanks ahead of time

just about any elect nitrous pressure gauge will do its the nitrogen pressure that will give you a problem, i don't know what you have for a system but most will run 2500-3000 psi ansd there's elect 2 1/16 gauges for that. if you have a smaller system like the nano it will run at 1500 so you can get away with a nitrous pressure also

The NANO bottle comes with its own gauge(up to 6K) depending on 4.5K or 3K system. If you want to remote mount your nitrous gauge then get an electric one as stated above otherwise just put one on each bottle or "Y" them together.

Thanks to Jay and SRT10 for the info. Yes, I have a NANO 4500 psi system. I want to remote mount inside the car so electric will be the way to go.

Thanks again.

On the Black Hemi in my sig I put a remote nitrous pressure gauge because I put two 5lb bottles in the middle seat and "Y"ed them together. In case someone is sitting there I can still see the pressure without asking them to move or get up to lift the top and see the bottles.
