My LCD screen project, boost, WBO2, Knock, etc

So awesome! I am waiting till the rest of my build is done to get this. I am usually the bleeding edge guy, but this on just keeps getting better!

Thanks man!

So how much will the new unit be?

This new design has a bigger microprocessor (twice the memory) and has an onboard buzzer to alert the driver when something bad has happened (exceed knock threshold, coolant overheating, etc). This different microprocessor lets me control the brightness of Red, Green and Blue background LEDs. I find the LED to be too bright at night, so this will allow me to dim it down. I've made a small expansion card for datalogging, one expansion card model is for serial datalog communication, the second expansion card is bluetooth communication. I've put the SD Card datalogging off for now, but it's not difficult to add, just swap in a different expansion card.

Cool, so you will hook up the early adaptors on the new design?

I also love this thing. I look at it more than any guage I have now. With this thing I realized I had a bad habit of selecting to high a gear ant too low an rpm range. I was getting a bunch of knock and didn't realize it.

Are you still offering to upgrade are older units ?

I'll offer a cheap trade up program for those that want the latest and greatest.

If I disconnect the wire/s from the ETACS and/or the remote locking system controller from the OBDII plug will it will stop? has anyone tried it?

If that happens with the tactrix or other OBDII cables installed, it's not the LCD controller itself. Sounds like it's still powering something after the car is off, or there's some kind of weird short going on. My car doesn't have that issue with the LCD controller, tactrix 1.3, or tactrix 2.0 - but my car is a 95.

I am just trying to find out if other 98-99 have the same lock then unlock thing happen with their cars. I am not sure if its how the 98-99 were designed or if is an issue with my car only, but it only happends if one of the cables are plugged in.

I'd love to find out but i need one to buy first!

waits impatiently for the new batch to be ready for sale....:D

Anyone else using this on a JDM ECU?
