I haven’t seen anything on the electronic gauges. You can pick 3 from a list. I set up dif temp, trans temp and boost.

Anyone else set this up and what have you tried so far?

I like to disassemble things.
Great post! Looking forward to hearing more.

In the GT500 supplement on page 14 lists the available configurable gauges. You set up in track apps.
Inlet air temp
Battery voltage
Air/fuel ratio
Vacuum/boost
Cylinder head temp
Manifold charge temp
Engine oil temp
Axle temp
Engine oil pressure
Transmission oil temp

I’d probably put these in this order:
Boost
Air/Fuel
IAT2 (manifold charge temp?)

Going from my ‘16 Hellcat to my ‘14 GT500 was a huge disappointment regarding how much nicer the SRT configuration and available data was (a complete generation leap in tech).
I’m very glad to see the awesome dash on the ‘20 GT500.
Anyone else?

I set mine up like the one below (axle temp, transmission oil temp and manifold charge temp). You can configure the colors too! Since my car is orange, I went with orange and purple. Looks great! Sorry, pic isn’t great.

@chill66 how long were you driving before that pic?
Asking cause it took 12 mi before my trans temp moved. And the dif temp started moving then too.

Well, I always drive it like I stole it, lol, and it had probably been on and off for a good 30 mins or more around town (mostly city driving).

So you were shifting, that’s cool. I haven’t played with the colors yet.

Do you know if you can change the hud colors?

Yeah I have a 3.5 mi slow narrow county road at 35mph and a nice 55 twisty road but 1-lane so you get stuck behind a slow car and your stuck for another 5mi.
Engine temp come up just backing out the garage almost.

Unfortunately, you cannot adjust the hud colors, just it's style and shift point.

Darn!!! This is really cool, especially to a guy that still has a high beam foot switch on the floor of his daily driver... :crackup:

I will definitely go with the Axle Temp and Trans Temp, (same as in my performance Bronco), and then add in Oil Pressure. Haven't looked yet, but can I program alarm points in these gadgets? If so, I would be very interested in Air/Fuel Ratio.

No oil can be worse that heat damaged lubricants. But goin' lean can be acutely destructive. Then again, this is a factory blower and tune - not something I wrenched and tested in my garage. :)


Looking for some :sun:.

I don’t think you can add alarms. The 2 gauges above the center console are oil pressure and oil temp.

I can see now if you’re on track on a straight with your foot on the floor you have time to check air/fuel ratio. Things happen pretty quick in this car not really checking the gauges when I have my foot in it, specially on the street.

I’ll see what it’s like on track in April.
