Default Want to use my display as engine monitoring?
Right then....

I have a Ripspeed display in the fron of MY04 WRX and was wondering if there are any systems out
there that can output Turbo Pressure etc onto the display rather than route in some extra dials?


Item would have to output a Composite video>>

Thanks

How about a Camp 2 from HKS?

http://www.hksusa.com/info/?id=3474

Rigs up to any double din sized display.

Camp2 looks nice but a bit pricey.
A Windows/linux notebook and Deltadash or Romraider would give more functionality and double as an media player.

I will look into the dash mode of romraider...

Romraider logger does have gauges but pretty basic and cannot be set full screen

Dashcommand for $24 but will need an OBDII Cable, laptop and VGA to Composite converter.

The only problem is that you will still need a keyboard and mouse or some other HID to be able to control the pointer on the laptop. You could use a cheap usb-base IR media centre remote (on ebay for $20) though.


EvoScan now also supports Subaru and have some nice virtual dash displays : http://www.limitless.co.nz/#EvoScanGPS
