Live gauges are a yes. Trying to find out about alarms.

Updated OP with relevant information from Ben Linney.

This needs to support android soon!!

More information added along with link at the bottom to EcuTeK release.

man this is sooo much win. just hope it looks nice. Accurate readings of oil temp.. here we go.. finally.

Where are you getting inaccurate oil temps? Torque and ProECU are exactly the same for me.

Would this Bluetooth solution be fast enough to show accurate boost and AF readings. No lag in readings? Just as good as dedicated boost/af gauge, i.e. AEM, Defi?

My Dashcommand and Bluetooth OBD2 dongle set up is pretty laggy when it comes to MAP and AF readings.

Honestly I'm not holding my breath. I've been messing with OBD monitoring solutions for a really long time and I have yet to see a Bluetooth solution that doesn't lag.

TBH though, I don't need most of the things I'd display to be fully realtime. I do run a single multi gauge though for boost, AFR, and E% though, the stuff I'd want to be realtime. I'd run temps and FBKC and DAM on the app... a little delay in those wouldn't bother me.

The suggestion is that this will log faster than ProECU. Therefore no reason why you couldn't. Usually the reason why the BT devices lag is due to the fact that the OBD polling rate is slow.

I'd buy this just for the ability to datalog using just my phone.

But at $300, I'll continue to lug around the ECUtek cable and my beater laptop.

Wouln,t it be more to do with most apps like torque dash command etc are using standard obd pid calls to ecu, where as stuff like ecutek oft tactrix are making direct ecu ram address reads which is way faster.

The data rate over blutooth should be heaps fast enough for some log data

No, it's 100% something to do with Bluetooth. If I force the same protocol/data rate with Bluetooth, there's still a delay. USB is effectively instantaneous. This is with OBDLink SX USB and Torque from last night actually. I gave my Bluetooth adapter away so I can't show a comparison but there's somewhere on the order of 300-700ms delay with Bluetooth.

So, basically, I agree the data rate is fine. Actually, the OBD data rate is 500 Kbps which translates to around 250-300 PIDs/sec. SSM can only be faster. My gripe is the latency makes live gauges just kind of... barely acceptable?

Is this going to allow for tuning and replace the ProECU Programming Kit?
Then would you still need to get a tune?
