Any way to get a permanent battery voltage display on the dash?

I know you can go through the long list of menu commands and eventually get to the battery voltage, but is there any way to get a permit display for my dash?

Did you do anything to make Torque read over 3psi of boost or do you just live with that one false monitor?

in the vehicle settings,you have to play with Engine Displacment of 3 litres, Volumetric Efficiency of 85%, and Boost Adjustment of 0 to get your boost to read correctly.The boost #'s has been validated against the BT tool on here from another member. Although the BT data is in different units and includes normal atmospheric pressure as well, so you need to subtract that to get what is typicaly referred to as "boost". after i adjusted these values my numbers are around 14-16 PSI on throttle and 0 at idle.
