What all is involved in running the pressure guage like this?

Not much at all. I would suggest buying an electrical pressure gague...With that its just running a few electrical wires, hooking up a pressure transducer and mounting the gauge :nod:

You can run a line off a bottle nut adapter to the gauge. The elcetric gauges are cool, but I guess I'd rather spend money on other things like an interface :cool:

SO if i order one of ur wet kits......instead of getting the bottle mounted one that comes with the kti can i switch out for an electrical one? What would be the extra cost?

Just remember to put a plug on the port for the bottle mounted gauge if you do that.

U mean run a nitrous line all the way up to the dash?....has anyone done that but to one of those pillar pods?

I haven't seen any one run a line all the way to the pillar. If you want to put it up there you will have to go electric because the mech gauge is kind of deep. I thought you wanted it on the console, which is why I suggested the mech.

elec pressure gauges are 150-150 for an autometer. or your going to need about an 8' peice of an line to go from a spare tire mount to the dash mount.

The electric gauges cost a bit more but are well worth it. If you plan on useing a piller pod and gauge Im not sure if there is even room to run a hose up through there for a machanical gauge. If you want to do a switch panle like the one you showed with a gauge you should be fine going electrical or machanical.
