Heres a noob carputer question. Say I wanted to have several sensor inputs, and be able to choose what I wanted to display on the screen? Could I have things like oil temp/pressure, coolant temp, boost, afr, iat, fuel pressure... or whatever, and be able to choose what 'gauges' i wanted displayed? is there a program for that?

you would need software solution to get what your looking for there are some out there but they tend to be expensive because of the low demand.

Not off the top of my head sorry, when we did it we made our own, and we dont sell that software it was just some stuff we threw together for some shows.

That is a really nice build into the bins.

For those wondering I am not really sure what I am going to do with the screen yet, right now its sits on my passenger seat when I want to use it.

I thought about mounting it to my center console its just short enough to mount sideways...
