Arrow somebody make one of these for an FC

http://turboxs.com/Dtec/dtec.shtml



totally badass, turns a gameboy advance into a display to show you engine data. it says you'll be able to buy sensors (other than the 3 that come with it) to display other things like knock count, water temp, etc. somebody get one of these and make it work on an fc plz thx

now ive seen everything... it seems to be universal... just wire in the sensors that come with it into yours.... couldnt be that hard.. im assuming it would be just the same as hooking up an aftermarket guage or guages

now that i'm thinking about it, that could probably work without plugging into the ecu... i'm sure it could be used with sensors from our cars (or does it come with the ones it needs?)
