Question

Hi Guys,

I'm not too technical minded I'm afraid but i'm looking for some help!!

I have a laptop and was wondering if there's some equipment available to keep an eye on things mechanically.

What hardware/software do I need? How much are we talking?

What kind of diagnostics will i be able to perofrm.

Any help greatly appreciated thanks!!

You could get Delta Dash from www.ecutek.com, tis about 225 quid +vat

Does all kinds of logging etc, graphs n stuff, pretty comprehensive, and if you have a newer model 01 and above, you can now do some live tuning too

So will delta dash work on MY96 engine coz I had a look on their website and couldn't see any reference to older cars.

Sorry for my lack of knowledge!!

Do you think it's worth investing in?

Deltadash won't work on a MY96. (It starts at MY99 to current)

I am working (with a few other people) on a solution to this, and hope to have something to show interested people at the Northern big one. (I may have something to put in Scoobyshop too.)

All I can say now is that I'll keep you posted.
