Oh your probably wondering about the x-gauges I put in. The TQ is torque, HPR is horsepower, TRN is transmission, FL is fuel level. I think thats it

Not really custom, just ones you can add that don't come on it stock. I didn't add senders or anything like that for them.

Theres a menu option, you just enter like 4-5 different number codes you can get off scangauges website.

Yeah I got mine to read 200 a couple of times lol. Its reading engine horsepower so it might be higher than what is actually put to the wheels.

I don't know how it calculates it either, but I got the F150 to read 345 one day with the 93 octane tune on a cold dry day!
Stock tuning I got it to 299.

Guy at Linear Logic, makers of the Scangauge, said that the horsepower rating is at the flywheel without accessories. I don't base my actual horsepower off of it but it will give you a baseline for when you do mods.
