Boost PSI level? Anyone install vacuum / boost guage?

[Fred27]

Anyone know the max boost level generated by the 2.0 EB in the Maverick? Has anyone installed a vacuum/boost gauge? If so, where/how did you mount it?

I'm interested to know about that too. Would have liked that to be one of the gauge choices.

It already has a boost gauge and you should be able to read it with a good obd2 scanner. Boost pressure is one of the critical pieces of information the computer needs to properly set the ignition.

Come to think of it, any boost gauge you buy probably just reads the obd data and displays it.

I remember reading that the boost is somewhere around 18

I remember @Buschur posted it once…

Pretty sure Buschur said it was 16 or 16.5

Cubby boost gauge coming in hot

I'd be more interested in oil pressure and exhaust gas temps on a turbocharged engine

That info is not showing available with Torque pro. Do you have an app that shows that data?

No. Torque pro's description says it shows boost for vehicles that support MAP and MAF sensors. I guess the mav doesn't have those. Weird.

That was my assumption. But I would like to have the gage, either digital or analog, visible in the dash area. I'd also like to have gear selection displayed, which would also be obd available data. Just looking for a reasonable solution.

Ford absolutely should have been included one, half the fun of having a boosted vehicle is watching the boost gage (just the nerd in be talking). My first was a 64 Corvair Spyder in high school (my have just given a clue to my age there).

Recommendation?

Searched on 'Ford 2.0 Ecoboost MAP sensor' and got results refereving a MAPT (manifold absolute pressure temperature). Not specific to the Maverick, is it likely to be different?

Cat bank 1 sensor 1
Intake air temp
Boost/Vac the red dot shows just over 20psi
Volts
Exhaust pressure bank 1

I changed it since then and did 3 or 4 different screens
the last one is Boost & TPS
