Torque App - Is it possible to import gauge clusters/setups that others on here have

I searched for some time on here, but could not find anything. There appears to be a the option to import saved setups on the Torque App. I am not sure if this is even possible, but given all of the customization necessary to get torque setup for these cars, was curious if there is any way for others to just share there setups on here for others to use? Apologies if this is a dumb Question, but for a relative novice, it would be nice to utilize what more experienced users have created.

Posting here in case others want to try. It looks like they are stored in "/.torque/dashboards/" but the .torque folder is hidden by default. The file manager I use on my phone has the ability in settings to show hidden folders but for some reason they do not show up in windows when I connect my phone which is annoying.

So if you cant see the folders when connected to your computer, the easiest way would be to decompress the file (if you have to just email it to yourself from the computer) and then save it into that folder using your phone. Unfortunately I had to zip it as the forum wouldn't allow the raw file to be attached.

GOT IT. Thank you. Does your dashboard include Coolant Temp, GPS Height, Intake Temp and Volts? Just want to make sure I didn't miss anything when importing. Anywhere I can get key specs #s to keep an eye on for the S65? Looks like Oil Temp isn't an option for this car..

Np, yea thats all I have on there. From what I understand unfortunately there is no independent oil temp sensor in this motor, what OBD is displaying as coolant temp may just be whats shown on the gauges which is an approximation of coolant and oil temp together. I wouldn't put much faith in it, more just to give you an idea of if its 'danger' hot or not. I couldn't think of any other useful gauges to put on there so I have no other suggestions.

This sounds like more work then its worth. Its not that tasking to just setup a profile and gauges. The hardest part is finding the sensor to assign to the gauge.

Engine Coolant temp is just that. Oil temp does not work through torque from my testing but, oil temp is right on your dash, so no biggie. Being supercharged, I like to see IAT and boost. I also keep up AFR (m) and (c) because its fun haha.

Try Torque widgets.. I think you have to pay for it though
