I wouldn't recommend the GT500 cluster. You will have a useless Boost Gauge that will continuously be illuminated RED because the cluster sees the lack of Boost Signal as an Error.

We could simulate the boost sensor and always show boost (SO it would never be red). Or we could wire up an actual (working) boost gauge

I would've got a GT500 cluster but I was afraid It was too far from the family as far as the ECU and sensors and wiring and the engines are different so I thought it would've been too much of a gamble.
I knew the boss had basically the same engine and computer so I thought that would help the cause.
HHmm I wonder if the boss has a map sensor or is that PID an inferred reading?
I would love to have that OEM boost gauge wonder how that would work

In the good old days there was a gear in the transmission that may have had to be changed. Now its all done electronically in the PCM by editing tire sizes and gear ratios. The PCM is merely telling the cluster how fast the car is going and the cluster electronics move the needle as necessary.

05MY and up, speed is generated by the PCM on the network.

On car-part.com there are 3 different versions listed for the 5.0. Any idea which one I would need?
