I have read a few threads about setting up hex net live gauges but haven't seen a step by step.

Could someone who has a nice setup of gauges post a step by step from everything, including the gauge sizes, how to save the template, and then the most important gauges to monitor while driving?

The ones I'm most curious about are boost and EGT (and region if EGT won't cover it) but am I missing anything that I should be watching?

I saw like a hundred sensors, some of them unlabeled, but nothing simply "EGT" and anything I did would create a graph instead of a nice looking gauge.

Also, is there any way to set up any of this while the car is off and can we trade templates after they're all setup?

I figured some of it out...I should be able to make a howto once I've got it all done.

Right now I'm trying to figure out the ID'S of the EGT. Am I supposed to be logging exhaust temperature banks 1 and 2?
