N20 and Street Driven

Okay, I am wanting to run a N20 gauge on my pod, but what else should I run?

Fuel pressure gauge?

or an Air/Fuel gauge?

I know its not the most technical, but I got like 30 min to decide. Thanks!

....and an apology for being a LMMF (a last minute mother...) and using the wrong forum

edit- oh yeah, they are all electrical gauges, no mechanical ones :-)

Re: N20 and Street Driven

Yeah, thats what i was going to do but it is only a single. So what would you do?

I already got the nitrous gauge on ebay in the last 6 seconds...

Re: N20 and Street Driven

Air/fuel ratio gauges are pointless, they result in a light show at part throttle and unless you go with a wideband system are inaccurate at WOT.

Fuel pressure would be good so you can keep an eye on it though you should have a hobbs switch doing that for you. I would probably go for a quality aftermarket oil pressure gauge.

Thanks man. I was going to be running a Hobb's switch.

Thanks for the input on the air/fuel.

You would go with the electronic fuelie gauge?

I too would go with a good oil preassure gauge. Stock ones are sometimes off a little. Or fuel pressure is important too...but if you have the hobbs.

Re: N20 and Street Driven

Fuel pressure safety switch will take care of that. I am not running any extra guages on my new setup.

Re: N20 and Street Driven

No, the strobes are the "emergency response blue lights". It's a rural department, so when the fire pager goes off, you flip the lights and siren on and traffic parts like the red sea. It's pretty handy, and you cant see them 'till they are on. It's a pretty sweet setup IMHO.

Hardly rice considering it's getting me to the station faster.

I tell you what, the car helps me get there first.

EDIT: Oh yeah, they are 2,800,000 candlepower a piece, but who really cares. lol
