Anything for $50 or less? I just want it to compare my gauge location to what the OEM location says on the track so a phone might actually be more ideal?

If you live near me, a local store is selling refurbished Samsung galaxy 2 7" tablets for $150. They're white, but nothing some vinyl wrap scraps can't fix.

Plenty of cheap tablets out there that don't support Bluetooth or have Google-Play. The only cheap one I've found (and was shortly sold out) was the Best Buy's cheap Chinese made 7" Double Power for $79. It is not discontinued, and no ETA, but they'll have it in stock some time in the future.... The problem with cheap tablets is glare, especially on the track on a sunny day. Keep in mind that the mounts for these 7" tablets are not very sturdy, and track officials may take issues with the mounts.

Would one of those screen protectors help get rid of the glare? I know they make a bunch of 7" models, so you could throw one on there on the cheap and get rid of it once and for all.

A 4.5" android phone works just fine.. showing me 18 different readings/guages at the same time! Once you get familiar with looking at them, it's not as confusing as it first looks.
the phone stays very well secured in that location for me too! No need to look at the factory "temperature" guage when I got the oil & coolant temp guages instead |

This works for boost, but maybe someone can provide a more accurate method.
Settings - OBD2 Adapter Settings - Boost Calculation Method: Prefer MAF Vehicle Profile - Boost Adjustment: 0, Volumetric Efficiency %: 100 I tick "Don't display psi as in/Hg" in Settings - Units and use a graph type "Turbo Boost & Vacuum Gauge" with a min value of 0.
