Boost Gauge?

[1FastSUV]

I have a 2019 AWD Stinger Gt and can't find the boost gauge. I've seen YouTube videos where it shows the boost gauge on the instrument panel but mine doesn't have it. Do they only put the gauge on the GT1 and 2s or was it an option that wasn't on mine?

Thanks in advance

It’s not on standard GT ...I wish I had the extra gauges but oh well don’t really need it as it’s just cool to look at

I figured that was the case, thanks. I have the gauges (boost & AFI) in my SRT and can adjust boost depending on whether I'm racing or just daily driving.
Thanks for the info, I'm new to the Stingers and am still learning it's features. So far I really like it. I needed a car for work and would've gone nuts with the lack of power in an Optima.

Glad you like it! Many mods out there now for performance... what kind of srt do you have? Srt neon? Lol I always wanted one of those when I was younger..

yeah the GT doesn't have the "performance" readout. The boost gauge is a little laggy, it is electronic, I don't think you're missing out on much. The oil temp gauge is pretty useful though.

I have a Jeep SRT8 but I've added a 78mm turbo, cam, SHR transmission, and built engine with forged internals. It runs high 11's in the quarter mile. LOTS of fun to drive.

Here's a pic of my SRT. I don't drive it much anymore tho. Not the greatest on gas mileage. The Stinger is pretty fast AND gets good mileage. Best of both worlds.

nice, sounds like you made a trackhawk. Any reason you modded an SRT8 instead of just getting the trackhawk?

Mine's an 06 and I ordered it brand new before they came out. I debated selling it to get a Trackhawk but couldn't bring myself to pay $90,000 for one. I may wait a year or two and pick up a gently used one. I built mine in 3 stages. First build I did the turbo and tranny. Second I put a larger turbo and exhaust. Third, I went with forged internals and cam. It was a little easier on the wallet to build in stages. ;-)
Oops, I forgot to add the fuel system. I did that on the last build too.

Right, the "Boost" and "Torque" gauges are complete jokes. Same thought there, I keep it up to I know when the oil is up to temp.

They're a lot of fun to drive. My license plates are 1FSTSUV and every once in a while some kid in a camaro or mustang (sometimes in a turbo diesel truck) try to test me. I haven't lost to one yet. ;-) I saw one kid at the gas station about a week later and he came over to take pictures of the engine. He said he told his buddies he got smoked by a Jeep on the highway and none of his friends believed him. He said he had to get pictures to prove it. lol

That’s awesome ... the trackhawk would wreck people too ... but your right about the price it’s a little too high... I’d rather get a true sports car for that price..

Gently used......is that even possible when talking about a Trackhawk? That thing is a beast of a machine that I'm sure is driven hard.

Good point! It'd be hard not to take that thing to the track. Sitting in the staging lanes for hours is a PITA but once you get to the line it's a HUGE adrenaline rush.

Yes, and a laggy turbo gauge is a useless turbo gauge. Have no idea why they even bother. As is, it provides almost no useful feedback.
