Default aeroforce gauge question??

I've been looking at buying the aeroforce gauge and was wondering if it can be used as a boost gauge as well, what about fuel pressure or even a afr wideband? Pat.

I have an older one, but the new ones have analog outputs, so they can read a WB and a FP guage. I also believe they can be programed while using a 2 or 3bar MAP so they will read boost.

Vanillagorilla, are you saying the gauge needs to be programed from the place you buy it, or is it my trucks computor that needs programming? Thanks Pat.

neither , the guage will need to be scaled from the analog 5v out puts from your choice of source( fp,wideband,boost gauge) by you.

If I'm understanding 2004SSS and vanillagorilla correctly they are talking about adding an extra 2-bar MAP sensor somewhere and feeding it's output to the analog input of the Aeroforce gauge.

Your other option is to replace the stock MAP sensor with a 2 bar sensor and calibrate it in the truck's tune. Then you can read boost straight from the PCM.
