It does, you can get a boost reading from the map sensor. I don't have a boost gauge but check out what I'm running through the OBD2 output from time to time.

That's good to know. Sounds like you can easily just mount up a PLX or even better, Aeroforce Interceptor and have one gauge do it all.

Simplifies the install A LOT as well. Took me two days to get all the gauges wired up properly and cleanly in my 4Runner and Challenger.

I used black universal gauge pillar pod's ("A-Pillar Kups") for my FI gauges (on the driver's A-pillar). They turned out really nice. The company is vumaxx and their website link is UNIVERSAL GAUGE MOUNTS
