Guage questions
Anyone have an exhaust temp guage?
What would the two most important guages to put in a pod?
My mechanic asked about a wideband O2 sensor gauge??? I've never heard of such??

Tuan Le,
Your guages look great. You need a home page with more photos of your car.
Another question: Is there a guage that can tell you amount of nitrous in bottle? I know the pressure can be fine with the bottle empty. I ask 'cause I'm only getting about 6 runs with a bottle. It's a PITA to run out at the track.

I don't think there is a gauge that will tell you how much nitrous left in the bottle. You can easily tell this by the psi when it's not heated. For example: When the bottle is full, the pressure should read somewhere ~1100psi unheated, after a few run it will drop down to ~900psi and so on.....

Re: Guage questions (Tuan Le)
I would highly suggest an EGT guage. I run one on every forced induction/nitrous application I do. It's great insurance and will tell you more than the A/F meters that all of the guage companies sell. I think there may be a couple of independants building some linear A/F meters (ie. wide-band) that actually would do some good at a reasonable price. But in the meantime, an EGT and either a fuel pressure guage or a N2O pressure guage.

I had a triple pod made for A/F, Boost, Fuel Pressure. 
They are bullet shaped (hard to see) but I will be replacing them with the new Cobalt ones when they come out.
