Nistune

therefore, what is the advantage in Nistune over a normal remap, and is there a way to get a multi function display to show engine vitals, boost pressure etc.

that u can change the maps etc without burning/replacing chips, opening the ecu, etc. not so much of an advantage if you only get it tuned once, but for retuning later and whatever, definitely easier.

it retains the consult port like other daughterboard/remap setups do (as opposed to replacement ecu like powerfc/microtech/etc which lose consult port), so any consult devices/displays should still work as normal.

oh yeah makes sense, and there are displays that you can hook into your consult port I imagine too?

[mad082]

yeah, newkleer does the consult displays. his has just chaged a few things on them to let you be able to set audible warning tones

I run a carpc with Datascan loaded on and have a 7" touchscreen in dash with the consult cable permanently plugged in.

Cool, I'm looking at a Nistune board or a remap when I get rid of the Microtech, but still wanted to have a display with readouts instead of having to buy several gauges.

Yep, and the other reason i went with a NisTune was that it can be tuned by a number of workshops who have software.

You still only get whatever the ECU reads from the factory. i.e. if you wanted a boost gauge on the screen, not going to happen.
