Does anyone know if the powerFC only gives readings in metric units? I need something thats a bit easier to read, or else study up on my metric so I can read the damn thing!

Study up on it. It doesn't take long to get used to. You only have to remember what the conversion is for pressure and temperature.

you don't even need to remember a conversion just key points eg 100C = 212 F and that is bad and 1kg/cm^2 of boost is 14.2psi. go from there
