Trying to determine software for gauges...
I'm having a hard time figuring out what exactly to search for to find my answer...
I have an Evo X MR. I have picked up the Tactrix OpenPort 2.0 Cable for logging. I also have a Windows CE device to capture the logs. What I want to know is if it's possible to monitor Boost, Wideband A/F, & Tranny Temps with software, on Windows CE device, instead of installing gauges.
I realize I'll need to get a Wideband Sensor and Bung in order to get Wideband capabilities, I'll also need to figure out a way to monitor the tranny temps, unsure on that part. What I don't know is if there are any cables and such that I can connect to my Windows CE device and software I can run to allow me to monitor through software.
Ideally I would like to not have to install gauges. I just want to make sure I've covered my bases before I start buying them.
Sorry, for bothering to ask I'm sure it's in here somewhere.. I just suck at finding it.

Post in the ECU forums. I know you can log boost & such with an 8or9 so im sure it can be done with the X. Not sure what all can be monitored. Those would be the guys to know though.

Alright I posted where I think you were talking about...
This stuff just isn't clicking for me. I'm a very visual person and I'm about to lose it trying to imagine how all the parts connect.

Doesn't look like you'll save any money going the software route.
AEM Transmission Temp Gauge 100-300F - $150
AEM Wideband UEGO Air Fuel Ratio Gauge - $225
AEM Boost Gauge 50 psi - $200
A-Pillar Gauge Pod - $200
~750
vs.
~$600 (in a less ideal location)

I'm sure you don't wanna drive around with a laptop EVERYWHERE you go do you? I know gauges may attract some attention but a laptop in the passenger seat... that would scream STEAL ME. Besides gauges are more convenient and in some cases more accurate. The AEM Uego is a very good choice. Also try looking at some Innovate products.
