Good question, IDK. I think one could be made easy enough.

I really want 4 gauges. Pryo, Trans, boost, HPO, and fuel. Oops, I guess that's 5. Plus you need somewhere for the chip setting selector. Where to fit all this crap?!?!

Some scrap plastic or thin sheet metal and a circle cutter should do it.

Trans temp, boost and injection pressure are all available through the PCM, so you could get an AF Intercepter and set it for any two of those, to get two displays on one gauge. Get a second AF if you want to splurge, and you can externally connect a pyro sensor to it. So, say, one AF with trans+boost, one with HPO+Pyro, that's four readings in two spaces. JAT.

Its a good thought, but I want my gauges independent of the computer. I could settle on just having a light that tells me fuel pressure is below a certain level.

My AF is set up to scan 8 things. PW, trans temp, oil temp, EBPS, Volts, boost, ICP, and DC%. I also have a boost gauge, TWO EGT gauges, fuel pressure gauge, oil pressure and water temp.
