The instant-FE would be a calculated value, yes? It wouldn't come from the OBD-II protocol itself. I think the engine LOAD parameter would be a better 5th value if you don't count instant-FE.

Carlos,
You might be right about the LOAD but I was thinking for the general masses that RPM would be much easier to understand. Most cars now a days don't even have a tach and are automatics. With RPM it would be very easy to see where shift point occur so that you could travel at the best speed with the lowest rpm for that speed zone.
