Where does everyone mount their Nitrous Gauge? The ashtray looks too small. The dia is 2 1/16". It does not have to be showing all the time. I would just like to check to make sure the pressure is OK.

Thanks.
Bill

i'd put it on the kick panel, or or in the center console or something like that.

Kick panel might be a good place. I hope the harness is long enough.

Thanks,
Bill

F-Body location if you did not want to do a Pillar. No cutting needed of the console with this style.

That's cool. Haven't seen that before.

Here's mine, though pillar mounts might as well as be in the trunk, at least on manual cars. try looking at that bad boy going down the track, it ain't going to happen, so mine are there for overall looks only. Really, all of our gauges need to be wired into our tuning programs and logged to look at later.

I am putting it on the kick panel below the main gauges. I made a special bracket. I might change it later. I will have to wait to see what it looks like. I have it all ready except for the Dash 12V.

Where did everyone pick up the Dash 12V?

Thanks,
Bill

I was thinking the same thing! That's just about 16 times the mileage I have on mine Wow, I was feeling bad about my car finally reaching 13k but not anymore. Here's my contributing pic. I just put it the console compartment. Easy and out of sight, I just check it before i spray.

I like the square dynotune gauges because they are pretty stealthy too.
