My NX EFI kit is on it's way :wave: - the only extra it's coming with is a nitrous pressure gauge. I WAS going to get an Auto Meter A/F gauge, but the guy who was parting out decided to keep his car.
So what all gauges do people use with nitrous? Fuel Pressure?

Go with pressure guages for both the Nitrous and the fuel for sure. The Fuel is pumped at around 50 PSI so you will need a pressure isolator if mounting the guage in cabin, I used the autoguage one.

As for A/F ratio guage it has some uses and will only give a stable reading at WOT, I'm using one at the moment, but it's no substitute for an EGT set up.

Only gauge really necesary with nitrous is nitrous pressure gauge which should come with the kit you purchase.

its a right hand drive celica, and its not a design we get here in the states. I'm not sure if the jdm version is the only one that has the climate control. But it looks a lot nice then what comes in the U.S. version
