Blutooth OBD II and a 9.7 tablet..
 
I thinking of getting a Blutooth OBD II module with the Torque App on a 10.1 Tablet...To be able to Display the gauges and do some data-logging.. that way I wouldn't need extra gauges... Would that work...

What tablet is 9.7 other than maxiPad?

Scooby South 12-15-2012 11:24 PM

Oh ok, only reason I asked is because the iPad only works with WiFi OBD2 from what I've seen.

I believe the HP Touchpad is 9.7 too

What I am thinking is to use the talblet..(Whatever size) to act as my gauges with the torgue Software app...so I don't have to actually install gauges...you can pickup the pieces for the install for around $150..tablet included..:)..that and be able to data log all at once..:)

I would like to think Torque and a Bluetooth adapter are good enough to get AFR and several other parameters but I don't know if I should trust them as replacement for actual wired gauges.

why??? its ECU data which is probably more accurate than the gauges since its coming Right off the ECU .:)

I know. I will probably give it a shot when the time comes. Just wanted to read more about cons about doing it this way.

AFR off the ECU isn't as accurate as a real wideband. I wouldn't trust it.

Scooby South 12-16-2012 09:11 PM
