I wish my projects could be so easy. There is always some stupid bullshit going on. Like when I put my stock headers on to go to the dealer. Had them on for a month, went to put my fuel back on, ripped one of the studs off the OEM header... It was only on a month... ???

What size/brand turbo is it? When do you hit full boost? Where does it max out?

Wouldn't it be cheaper to run all digital gauges on a single large screen than 10 small screens and 10 analog dials?

Redundancy and fail safes. You want your pilot to lose all his instrumentation and info if one screen decides to go out?

Tcoat is right, it's for redundancy. We have 2 batteries, 2 generators, 2 computers, 2 sets of controls, and we can switch them back and forth or condense them onto one screen as necessary. There is even a minimal 3rd backup system on a little tiny screen and it's own little battery. Also I think the price of a screen goes up exponentially with it's size sometimes. Maybe that's more for what they get at sale than cost but it seems how it is.
