Default tunerstudio vac/boost gauge for ms2?

im looking to get a boost/vac gauge back into ms2's gauge settings for ts. i added an afr target gauge, and the boost/vac last night into the gauge settings lines in the INI file using this.

VacBooGauge = boostVac, "Engine Vac Boost", "in-HG/PSIG", -30, 30, -30, -30, 30, 30, 1, 1
TargetAFRGauge = TargetAFR, "Target AFR", "AFR", 10, 19.4, 0, 0, 20, 20, 2, 2

they come up in the settings , i changed the channel for afr target to aftarget1, but theres nothing besides map for the vac/boost. so far i got the afr target gauge working, but i cant get the boost/vac to work right. its just reading map pressure and is totally off on the gauge to where it should be. what am i missing, what else do i need to change to make this work right? i cant find a channel for engine boost/vac, what do i do now? i take it i gotta add this also somewhere?

Vacuum and Boost Gauges
vacuum = { (barometer-map)*0.2953007 } ; Calculate vacuum in in-Hg.
boost = { map < barometer ? 0.0 : (map-barometer)*0.1450377 } ; Calculate boost in PSIG.
boostVac = { map < barometer ? -vacuum : (map-barometer)*0.1450377 }

but im new to playing with the coding and just trying things out, if anyone wants to lend a hand. im basically looking at the old ms1 INI i was using prior to ms2 and figured id see what i can make work. cause i missed some of the guages i use to have....lol...

thanks,
josh

I happen to have TS open in MS2. I see an option for Engine Vac Boost.

dunno why you want it.

I think it was like 2.1 or something. Whatever I was running on my old MS2.

Change the extension to .txt or something that is valid here. Then rename after downloading it.
