If I am right:
I am guessing that the readouts shown are selectable to some extent. IE. you can pick what you want the read out to be.

I wonder if the number of readouts will be limited to three at a time.

If "comp" is manifold pressure, this points once again to truly complex engine management!

Since there is no value for "comp" in the picture, I am wondering what units will be used (or will it be some sort of percentage based on throttle and mix?).

OR....maybe I am wrong about what "comp" in the picture actually stands for.

Exhaust Flames: I think every other person on this board cares more about it than I do lol. They look good and I sort of look forward to trying to use the colors to figure out just how my engine is running.

My first guess was compression (maybe something to do with different engine types and program modeling processes inside it) - but then again, we won't know for sure until Oleg tells us.

COMP - if MP is for Manifold Pressure, what does CO stand for?

I hardly believe that pilots could manipulate Manifold vacuum (or engine vacuum) other by different throttle settings.
