Where's your sense of adventure?

Lol.

Sense of adventure? It's already proven that the only devices that can read our car's data from the OBD2 port is either the HKS OB-Link or the Greddy Informeter, neither of which has a video output...

That's why I said its not that easy. If it was I'd have my Rasperry Pi already to rock in the car. The HKS OB Link is feasible if someone can port their Android software to Debian...

Can't Raspberry Pi run Android?

One of the guys at work has one and I'm sure he said it could.

Yes it could, but why would I bother when I can get a $130 7" Android Tablet that's 4 times more powerful then a RasPi and already has GPS, BT, Touch input display, storage, etc?

I think if you want to utilise the existing pop up display, a RasPi Carputer would be good, if you want a intergrated look and more flexibility. Other wise a cheap Android Tablet can do it all for cheaper and safer too...

Then I'm confused why you want their software ported to Debian?

Because Leon suggested a Carputer and a OBD2 connector/cable would work in our car...

IF the HKS Android software was ported to Deb then yes Carputer would work (that's if you want to display all the ECU data). Even then you'll need some sort of touch screen hooked up...

If not then a cheap tab would work just as well, if not better.

You mean like this one?

There are a few options available, I have one here on an RS wreck too. What colour are you after though?

Did a language conversion for someone that had one of these. Buttons look abit out of place but worked perfectly and they were very pleased

Ahh.... we're talking about 2 different things by the looks of it. You appear to want a solution that does everything, including a touch screen overlay to change stuff as you go, correct? Which would be very nice, btw.

I was only talking about displaying a handful of gauges on the screen (as well as having a multimedia player). The UpRev Cipher cable will do that, but there may be cheaper ones around that can read enough of the OBD data to give you something to play with.

Alrdy purchased 1 of those oem items listed in the above post, Actuallt found it cheaper than the other kits out there thru stereo mobs.

I did purchase the metro kit but opened it up & the buttons looked so tacky, so sent it straight back. Got my money back than bam purchased that 1

Not a bad price for what it is, especially compared to CAMP2.

Only problem is you need an Android powered head unit.

Or any tablet with a browser (mainly linked to it for ironpaw). But using a dual DIN head unit to display gauges would be very cool :cool:

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
