Question about gauges and passing tech

IIRC, nitrous and fuel pressure gauges have to be electrical or else be mounted outside the vehicle, correct?

I'd like to do a pillar pod with the two gauges, but I hate to spend nearly $300 on two gauges.

Fuel pressure has to be electric to be inside. Nitrous pressure doesnt have to be electric,they have a special restrictor fitting you use to mount it inside.

So you can save money and get the mechanical N2O guage.

Is the restrictor built into the gauge, or is it something I need to purchase seperately?
