I did some more digging on this. Wow. That system looks truly amazing for the cost. Lots of info you get on top of setup for gauges and what not which was what i was looking for. All the other stuff and just added bonus.
Wonder how accurate the stuff like hp and torque readout and the acceleration numbers are????
Really neat stuff.

I rarely use it, but I have an elm bluetooth adapter that I can connect to the android radio in my mercedes. I plan to use this same sort of setup on the android radio in my gto when I put it back on the road, eliminating the no longer fully functional aeroforce scangauges. This will allow my dual gauge pod to be used for non-digital gauges for boost and (?).
