In this sense, yes. But then i'd change it rather to "add generic OOB dongle functionality to it so it can be reused with torque alike apps", then ask to "develop something similar". Isn't Ecutek tunable platforms a bit narrower niche then OBD in general / apps for displaying it's data? Yet they will need to pay as much for developer manhours as torque did, to reinvent wheel, as making something subpar (even if just by customisability or graphical eye candy) will rather rise users criticising/comparing with. That extra devpower may count to lot of money. And should those costs be pushed down on all the ecutek users? Just bluetooth dongle buyers? You'll be ok with paying $500 extra?
