In sport mode the guage on the bottom right is measuring psi's. WTF is being measured?

Default is oil pressure. Can be changed in pocket gauge setting.

Thanks for the information. I was expecting posts telling me what an idiot I am.

No worries.

Maybe I should have said it was the "710" pressure.

If you want to change them, it's page 5-12 in the 2015 manual.

I think it is supercharger pressure, as it goes -15 to +15, don't think oil pressure does that, however I don't know what you do with the data.

PSI, is Pounds per Square Inch = PSI. That is the supercharger boost pressure.

Supercharger pressure is not a pocket gauge - it's there all the time. Oil pressure is a selectable pocket gauge. Both have units of psi.
