Boost Gauge in this Pic???
I don't know if you can see this in full resolution but below the oil pressure there is what appears to be two rotors and "PSI" just like the current C6 ZR1 has on it's cluster. Anyone know anything about that?

Tire pressure wouldn't be -15 lol. I'm guessing just a vacuum/boost gauge.

ever since the LT1 info was released. a bunch of us have been drooling over the potential a boosted engine would have with the new injection

Well we already knew that a c7 ZR1 was coming.... lets just hope the c7 z06 is boosted as well.
