ODB II Information
I think I have found a custom digital gauge that reads directly off the ODB II port. However I am not certain exactly what is available to be monitored for a 2012 GS.
I am putting in a supercharger and need to know if there I could grab manifold boost pressure from a non-boosted factor vehicle.
I really want to keep the interior as clean as possible, and this gauge does that. It is pricey but I like the less cluttered look.
Is there any list of what can be pulled via the ODB II port?
Thank you

When supercharger is installed, your Map sensor will be changed to a 3 bar sensor, so yes you could pull the Map pressure from the OBDII port if desired, and they have devices that will plug into the OBD II port to display such on the DIC.
But will tell you from the start, its the wrong move, since you want to monitor more than just MAP alone, and would go with a new A pillar pod that allows you to mount a few gauges there so you can see them while still looking forward through the windshield isntead. Plus, this leaves the OBD II port open so it can be used when needed/ not having something dangling down that is going to be knocked loose instead.
