New ECU Data Monitor
We are finalising the software for our new data monitor, the new unit adds in addition to our other products features - external EGT sensor input, custom bitmap images, larger graphical VFD display, OEM podmount / single DIN or standalone enclosure ( manufactured for us by Forge motorsport - machined from a billet of aluminium then black anodised ), graph page for overlaying traces e.g. boost / rpm etc...
Unit is stilll plug and play, planned future uprades are up to 30 minutes of data logging stored on board for download to PC, flash upgrade for software, bitmap generation/upload software.
Full details will be available very soon on our new website.
Proposed prices are: -
VGS1 - Subaru Single DIN £400
VGS4 - Subaru Post’01 Pod £440
VGA2 - Standalone / Screen mount £425
Plus vat.
Some shots of one of our demo units..
Custom bitmap images...
Example data pages...
Standalone enclosure...
Other current projects include:- Autronic Ecu Data Monitor and PSi3 Earthing Kit, we are also expecting our first delivery of www.Kartboy.com and www.TurnInConcepts.com products from the US this week, for those who are unaware of their products we will be adding full details to our website very soon, untill then please check out their websites or do a search on www.nasioc.com to see how highly regarded their products are.

Edward, our software is a combination of the select monitor protocol and OBD II, it is typically 4 times faster than OBDII.

Are there going to be any other external temperature inputs other than egt?
A couple of thermocouple inputs for measuring charge temp etc would be very useful.
Also will there be any other aftermarket ecu support other than autronic? Motec maybe?
Cheers

Please excuse my ignorance here .... I was looking at a VFD monitor for my MY99 Impreza (pod housing in the cubby hole on top of the dash) .... I take it this is an even better version, and can be mounted in the same way??
May have come along just at the right time!!
Thanks,
Norm.

Hi,
Looks REALY nice
I would realy like a thermocouple input, wideband lamda, hell even an input for an external knock sensor so I can get rid of the knocklink (I know the ecu already has a sensor but I read on here that its not very good?), basicly I would like the unit to replace all gauges and flashy light boxes
Does it have an external alarm output so I could set all the various alarm parameters on the unit and then wire in one red light in my driving vision?
The only other comment I have is it seems the external sensors are VERY expensive, again i am only going on the prices I have seen advertised for your previous products (117 quid for oil presure - I could probably get the whole DEFI guage and sensor for that).
Cheers
Dan

At present the new unit has the following:-
Inputs
EGT
MAP (boost)
Oil Temperature
Oil Pressure
Fuel Pressure
Outputs
Shift/Warning light (12v)
Alarm 2
Alarm 3
Alarm 4
We have allowed on the PCB for 2 more analogue inputs and 1 more thermocouple input. Your suggestions have been taken on board
Data monitors will be software upgradeable to take advantage of any new inputs.
With regards to sensors, we can only buy Defi through a third party, we have looked at alternatives but prefer to stay with Defi due to the quality, the oil pressure and temp are standard Defi items so can be bought anywhere, we do however include in our kit the OEM Subaru galllery plug adaptor, instructions, cable ties and a sticker
Please be aware that the Defi shift light is modified by us to run 12v not 5v as per the standard item.

Simon,
All sounds good, thanks for the explanations
Another attraction for me personaly is to keep the other half happy as she hates lots of gauges that apparently "shine in my face at night".
