Pulled this combination out of my behind recently and produced the videos below with this set up.

I haven't heard about this app... is it like a butt dyno? It must plug into the OBD port or something?

I remember old Washougal River Road! Used that once in a while to get around traffic and always loved it.

Torque Pro is an android app that you can use with an OBD2 dongle to get real time information while driving. It also uses your phones GPS. It'll tell you speed, rpm, coolant temps, vacuum, etc. It's got a setting where it will log 0-60, 1/4 mile, and other performance aspects too. It'll also read trouble codes.

Very neat app for ~$6.50. You can pick up a bluetooth dongle for $17 shipped on amazon, that's what I did. Here's the link: [ame="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0090ZJPMK/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00"]V1.5 Super Mini ELM327 Bluetooth OBD2 OBD-II CAN-BUS Diagnostic Scanner Tool[/ame] - you just plug it in, pair it with your phone and open Torque.

is that video from your nexus 7?

Oh, I just spent a few minutes on the iTunes store trying to find the app... then I saw it is for Android. Doh.

Likely from his Droid, the N7 doesn't have a backwards facing camera.

I feel like my car would get broken into.

Dang, now I gotta buy and Android thing.

I use an old Android cell phone for my Torque stuff. Old Galaxy S with torque and a bluetooth OBDII adapter. Haven't tried it on the FRS though.

for iOS you can use Dashcommand with a Wifi OBD adaptor...

Lol I forgot about that... I knew something was weird about that :slap:

So after seeing the above questions, I decided to take a few photos showing how I hooked this thing up. I purchased the mini OBD II off of Ebay a few days ago for $19.00. It works flawlessly with no issues, the higher quality ones run between $100-150.00 which was a no go for me. The only significant difference I anticipate is the information refresh rate. I initial went to purchase a samsung galaxy player, but notice that some random window mount I purchase back in the summer might be able to handle a 7" tablet. So on blind luck I purchased a Samsung Galaxy Note 7. Photos below:

Correct. $199 @ Best Buy

so do we know what the smallest working OBD-II bluetooth adapter is?
