nitrous pressure guage ?'s

i got one of the dyno tune nitrous pressure guages, and it comes with everything i need to install it, my question is, does it matter if u mount the sending unit at the bottle or the solenoid? cuz i really dont feel like pulling carpet and trim pannels to get it to the trunk, just wondering if this will make a difference, thanks

I dont think it matters. The whole line is pressurized so the pressure shouldn't vary from point to point on the line. If you apply 10psi on one end of a hose, you should get 10psi of force on the other end. Don't hold me to this, but i don't think it matters.

I've always done it off the bottle- really doesnt matter what the line pressure is (it should be the same in theroy). your looking for a bottle reading as a general rule...
