Black box logging (log w/out laptop) and inputs/outputs. Inputs are good for things like fuel pressure gauge, Wideband. Outputs can be used to actvate external signals (example, if RPM > 6000 and KR > 3 AND ..... turn a light on)

Anything w/a linear feed (and below a certain amperage) of 0 up to 5 volts (doesn't have to go this high, just not over) can be mapped w/the scanner and added in

For your set up, it would be a nice option to have all those inputs with the Pro Interface. Figure you'd really benefit from being able to log wideband and fuel pressure, don't really need boost since the MAP can show that.

If you are cheap you can use your EGR 5v input and/or A/C 5v input for A/F and fuel pressure...This is what I am doing.
