Not really a how to but this is the link to the Aeroforce forum thread about MAP kPa MOUSE.... oops
(here's the link)

Almost sounds like they had another parameter available for MAP. They were discussing a Gran Prix. Check the last post in the thread.
This is what is driving me crazy about the Aeroforce and the PLX multigauge. They display a lot of useless stuff from the OBDII and it seems to be real difficult to nail them down as to all parameters they do display, AND they are a wee bit expensive. I need manifold vacumn and pressure under boost and it looks like I would have to buy their mechanical transducer kit and a 5v power supply to get what I want. I can get a pretty good gauge for Vacumn/Boost for the cost of the transducer alone. (don't get me wrong the coolness factor of the Aeroforce makes me want one )

I would think a vacuum/boost gauge would be the best way for you to go, rather than trying to display it through the AeroForce gauge.

Just ordered my gauge today. $227 shipped from advanceadapters.com using coupon code THANKYOU .
Now that it includes new Jeep features (Set TPMS, High Idle, Set Gear Ratio / Tire size etc.) I can sell my Procal.

wow that sounds like a awesome gauge .. you can do all those things with it ? i need one

This is a little late but the gauge does display MAP (manifold air pressure) in kPa and in inHg (vacuum). If you've added a blower you will need the 2 bar MAP kit to read boost (positive pressure) as the stock MAP will only read vacuum.

Haven't tried it, but I would think it would be a pain to fumble through the menus looking for the locker. With a switch you can just reach down (or up) and hit it when you need it, and dis-engage it when you don't. After a while it becomes a no-look reflex.
JMHO.
