In FlightGear you can use scale and factor tags to modify an existing
property. Shouldn't be too hard to use these to make ITT look like the
EGT you expect from the POH.

Hello !
I'm currently implementing the turboprop engine of a FlightGear
aircraft, which instead of an ITT gauge has a TOT gauge ! But sadly I
couldn't find a TOT/EGT property anywhere. Do you think it would be
possible to add this to JSBsim, or could I at least calculate it from
some other properties using a system function ?
Should not be that hard as it's already implemented for turbine
engines, but I couldn't hack anything together by looking at the
source code.
Using an ITT gauge instead of an TOT gauge is sadly not possible
because there are no references for that in the POH of the aircraft,
only TOT values are given.

Luckily another aircraft has the exact same engine with a working TOT gauge, so I can hack something up. They are calculating the TOT from |
