WOW bring it on. I would love digital guages

I looked at this product about a year ago, with the intention of developing the mods for the BA falcon.

Problem was development costs.

Licencing issues and paying a royalty to manufacturer with limited number of potential sales killed any enthusiasm I had in the project.

I'm still keen on a solution though. Biggest hurdle was access to FORD's CAN controller protocol. In other words, deciphering the commands on the OBDII port to extract the info you want.

There is just so much information available from the ECU on the CAN bus.

All the parameters you could wish for when modding your T.....

Ambient air temp, post IC air temp, manifold air temp (so as to assess IC performance.

Water temp, oil temp , trans oil temp all available for monitoring,

Boost pressure at turbo and at manifold, rpm, speed, gear selected etc etc

With a bit of memory storage, could be used as a data logger to assess performance of key parameters when drag racing or circuit racing.

With access to all the codes, of course, you could program the ECU directly and have your own EDIT facility.....

Can be an exceptional tool, but will cost a significant amount as there is such a small market from which to recover development costs.

I will certainly keep my eyes on this thread for a potential product though.....

cheers

Any updates on this ? Hopefully it's still being looked into.

Thanks

Hardware wise you could look into dge.com.au.  We use them for all our small pc gear.  Maybe a bit expensive but they have a few cheaper ex demo etc stock of old 386/486 small all in one boards which may be suitable.

Thanks Matt,

This is a smaller footprint than what I was currently using, I'll look into pricing.

[HUSTLER]

Ive spoken to him about this, he said it can be done pretty easy, but he isnt going to spend anymore time on it pretty much.

[J&SXR6T]

The setup in mine does heaps of things....

So yes it's developed further, but not much 'real' interest in the product when I did ask...
