i just bought one of these from deal extreme

i give you a bluetooth serial access to the can buss

i run torque free on my phone and its awsome the things i can pull from the stream

i used to use my cortex for this but it doesnt have all the thing i wanna see

now i can watch my can bus data as well as have input from the accelerometers in the phone and gps data

torque is good but its not perfect
it does have the option to add custom PIDs does anyone know any dakota pids?like trans temp?

what about things that can be turned on / off with scan tools
or programming new keys

has anyone ever dug into the obd2 protocol?

ideally would be having superchip release their programmer as an android app

or someone could reverse engineer the protocols so we could have on the fly adjustments to our fuel/shift maps

idk
shoot me your thoughts

 

neat. If you had one of those Chinese media players that run windows to display the info on the dash ---- that would be sweet.
