Ford screwed the pooch on the gauges. All of that electronic space and no boost, water temp, oil temp, or other useful "apps."

It has the analog gauges. I'm talking about digital gauges like you can get in the Torque app. They basically left one empty with only a digital transmission temp. Test mode generates all kinds of digital data. Kind of pisses me off that they were too damn lazy or cheap to maximize the operating info available.

If you want to monitor some PIDS you can go with a fairly cheap option in the Scangauge II. They are like $60 bucks. If you wanted to spend a couple hundred dollars you can go with the Edge Insight in either the 3.5" or 4" screen. Either of those will be able to read and clear CEL codes as well. Remember that hooking up a "traditional" boost gauge is a bit of a challenge because there is nowhere to get a vacuum/boost reference. You can go with the Full-Race throttle body spacer that gives you 2 ports.

No joke, the powerstroke, Lightning and Cobras' all received boost gauges. Interesting, you would think a twin turbo vehicle would.
