Scan Gauge - what am i looking at?

So my scan gauge is still a mystery to me.
I know my voltage should be around 46-48 for the FPM reading
what is a decent value to track and for what?
Currently it set for
IPR - reads 23.5
EOT - reads 178
TFT - reads 141
FMP - low as 46 / high as 48

I have three pillar gauges
Boost - around 10-12 psi normally
Fuel pressure - 55- 60 normally
Exhaust temp - varies on excelleration

thanks guys - im trying to catch up to the class...

Knowing what engine you have would help greatly here, throw it in your signature line so the rest of us don't have to ask every time You can do it from your User CP. Assuming it's a 6.0 since you're monitoring FMP?

EOT and TFT regardless of engine, as long as they don't surpass 230° you're fine. After that thermal degradation starts to happen and you'll want to change the fluid as soon as you can.

I keep mine set on IPR, ICP, EBP, and EOT personally but I'm in a 7.3. Pillars are boost, trans, and EGT. Soon to ditch it for a quad pod to add a passenger EGT and then fuel on the steering column.
