comp nitrous read outs???

I am going to sink a screen between my nitrous bottles. For show, I thought it might be cool not only to play dvds but also to have like a digital read out of the status of my nitrous such as how full the bottles are or anything of the sort. I know basically nothing about computers so I am asking for any help you may be or any suggestions anyone may have. Thanks so much. :cheers:

its impossible to tell how full a bottle is because its a gas. Unless you weigh it, then display on the screen the weight or display a percentage by using a conversion algorithm.

You could tell how full they are from pressure and temperature. Wouldn't be exact, but it would be close enough for government work. Setting it up and making it look cool you would need a programmers backgournd and some hardware fabrication for the interfaces for the sensors. Probably more work than it's worth. I'd me more apt to do something about the engine stuff thats going on.
