    That banks iDash looks pretty sweet. I filtered to 2.4l 2025 Tacoma, can you tell if it looks like it will only display boost % or actual PSI based on the parameter library?

    >Is it as easy to tap a vacuum line to get the turbo readout on an aftermarket gauge? This would be something I want 110%!

    I'd assume so, I'm guessing any OBD tool is reading the same pressure the ECU is seeing.

    If you can get away without adding a sensor to a vacuum line I'd say do it. Nothing wrong with doing that for a boost gauge, my WRX hatch has a Defi gauge that is tapped into a vacuum line but if you don't need to.. /shrug

    Was not aware you could add the boost gauge with an OBD style instead of vacuum, I would 150% would prefer to not tap a vacuum line!

    I would have gone iDash but I'm very careful with leaving valuable looking stuff in plain sight in my DD, my Scan Gauge is in a pretty inconspicuous spot, hard to see from outside of the truck.

    Otherwise for sure iDash on the A pillar.

    Had one of their older models for years on a car that did not have a temperature gauge. Worked very well but when I wanted another one, they did not appear to be available any more. Glad to see that they are back.

    Is there a similar scanner for Ford EEC-IV? The temp guage on my '86 Mustang bit the dust several years ago and I need to be aware of when it throws a serpentine belt.
