Alternative to SECS data monitors.
See if anyone gets what the hell I am on about...
I am looking at new headunits and the new Alpine double din appeals to me for a number of reasons.
Anyway, as it has LOADS of functionality, I wondered if there were any ECU data readers that can utilise the screen on the headunit, to operate as a data monitor as well as all the other functions.
I see ECUTek have some software on there, but have no idea how anything like that works.
Any boffs give me a clue ?

Naaaa dont want a pod unit or anything. Had the PSi3 before, so wanted to run something similar, but integrated into the screen if such a thing exists.
Cant be bothered with defi type gauges etc
Dash on the bug and hawk are almost the same, certainly the clock pod etc

Hmmm thinks again....
Maybe I will have to get a SECS or something then. Not seen one for the 07 yet Simon said something about one coming soon and something to do with Ecutek.
Aaaah well, I reckon get the Alpine and go from there then

Incar PC isnt as expensive as you might think these days - and you get to run ecutek/satnav/mp3/radio etc through the PC with a built in double din touch screen, the custom PC bit tucked away in the boot.
