Is there a way to display turboprop engine data in Boeing GC EICAS? Torque, ITT, RPM,etc.

I guess the answer is no. Time to buy FsXpand.

Project magenta will not display itt, etc. EGT only, unless you buy the PMRJ GC.

but will not resemble turboprop instruments.

FSeXpand also only costs $70.00 USD and the gauges don't even compare to that of Project Magenta.

I have the PM Boeing GC. I just didn't want to spend $450+ USD just to display turboprop engine data with PMRJ (I know PMRJ does more than that). The FsXpand's turboprop guages look not too bad (same as FS Kingair guages). Had the FsXpand 5.5 beta demo running with PM Boeing GC PFD/ND - not bad little set up for a Kingair or Dash 8.
