I have seen a program for a pc before that will hook up to your computer and read all of your info (0-60,1/4 mile,rpm range, etc) but it was almost $1000.

AEM and MR Control's Hydranemisis system are stand alone controls units that are adjustable via laptop, they are more used for tuning and logging, not leaving your laptop in your car when you drive, thats actually pretty retarted.
i believe some of their displays incorperate gauges meant for use during dyno tuning. --------------------  Believer, you'll leave her, in leaving them all No but I don't buy it Like anything you do, as anyone you are Cause I'm... Ten Speed, of God's Blood & Burial |

is it possiable yes... if you want to do some thing real custome.. but you would have to start by making a program to read everthing.. then an interface for everthing......if you know car porgrams and how to build computer programs then you can do it...

You can run a laptop in your car to control your FMS (Fuel Management System).. when I find the link i'll post it.

Here is a link for the AEM ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM, it's cool, but you pay a price for it! I once saw a RX-7 that was running around 950 HP with it! It doesn't have our car on there but with enough money anything can happen!
Hope this helps!

well, if theres a programe for a 1k, just get a few other peps that are interested and then split the cost an just copy it or install it on other comps.. 10 peps 100 bucks each... but its not really worth doing all that unless you got alot of stuff done.

i dont think the program is the expencive part. i think getting the ECU with the laptop connection is gonna be the costly part.
