Message As of last night, the interface is now to the point where the user can REALLY use the product and tune with it. Real-time tracing mode and a datalogging function work very well and makes for very easy understanding of things as well as eases tuning.

Single point trace. Shows currently used point.

Datalog trace. Shows points used since datalog was started.

The interface will also have the ability to monitor up to 6 additional inputs so if you have EGT's, WBO2's, or you just want to monitor one of the already existing sensors in the car, you can do that too!

Inputs are user configurable; you can specify an input name, scaling algorythm (if you want to scale the sensor voltage into a unit), a correction factor, as well as a unit specification. This information will appear below the maps where you already see acquisition data.

These user configurable inputs as well as all other points of data are dataloggable and are saved in a datalog file in comma seperated values. These can be imported into excel for further review, but I will be integrating a linechart graphing utility which will show all of these points of data over a timeline just like the indy guys use. =)

The explanations given in the documentation explain how all of these components work and it brings the user all the way from not knowing anything about engine theory all the way up to modifying any of the values for desired results. Nothing has been left out and everything explained is correct. The docs have almost as many characters as the source code does and the source is an appreciable size!, LOL.

I will be shipping out 4 betas of this product on monday, with a potential 5th person. There will be beta testers from all over the world - Canada, Netherlands, Germany, the US and its looking like we're gonna have an individual 'down under'(AUS) as well.

Over the next couple of weeks I will be getting feedback from these people and making any necessary changes/additions to make this an unbeatable product. Continuing development will also keep it at the cutting edge (I dont rest on my laurels) =). We will start seeing dyno results from other people as soon as next week and I will be posting my own dyno results tomorrow after I get back from setting the benchmark for stock turbos/stock intercoolers.

So, to say the least, these are exciting times!
