    So I was just wondering how to make a gauge that'd show the supercharger pressure similar to a turbocharger gauge. Thanks in advance y'all

    (No I'm not uploading the gauges when I've finished them, they're gonna be for personal use only.)

    Both of them use the same gauge, if you want to make a gauge, then don't take my word for it, im not a modder.

    there's threads about turbo gauges somewhere. use the t-series one as a reference, and i think there's been some mods here and there that include a gauge addon for certain cars.. turbo/supercharger should both run off the same type of gauge (since it's just measuring air pressure before it gets sent into the engine)

    For some reason the custom gauge works fine on a turbocharged engine but not a supercharged one so I believe then do use a different type of gauge.

    it seems "turboBoost" is used for the gauge in the semi, so that would explain why gauges modeled after that one would be only for turbochargers. try just plain "boost" and see if that works, since both turbos and superchargers seem to output that info as well as the turbo-specific "turboBoost" function
    please do let me know if it works :)
