Default Need help on a guage question

I want to relocate the pressure gauge so that I don't have to look behind me to see what the pressure is. I have one line that goes from the bottle (transmission hump) to the front (battery side). My question is this:

I want to put the guage in the middle vent hole. Do I have to get a new line that goes from the bottle to the guage area, then have that run to the exisiting line? So, then I would have the exsisting long line coiled up somewhere or is there another way to do this? ?

The gauge that is on the bottle is direct, meaning it is not controlled by the bottle valve. Your nitrous feed line to the solenoid is after the bottle valve.
IMO, I would leave the bottle gauge alone and get another electric pressure gauge and hook up the sensor at the bottle.. either with the bottle pres. gauge or T off the feed line for pressure when open (which is more of what you really care about)

I currently have the guage in line right now, and with the automatic bottle heater pressure sensor in line, if I add ANOTHER in line sensor, I think it would get a little long.. :S

Put the gauge on a swivel adapter on the mainline. This adapter is two port, so one could go opposite the one pictured.
