Is Anyone Doing Any This?

[§ilver§nake]

I am installing a mini-PC under my passenger side seat and installing the Afterburner-eFPC software, interfacing it with the FJO wideband oxygen sensor for realtime monitoring and on-the-fly adjustments. When the Predator software is available, I will connect it to the Predator for streaming.

I am installing a folding 7" touchscreen display between the visors for the user interface.

Since I am doing the above, I might as well installed GPS tracking capabilities.

My software developers are working on other "tools" for me.:-D

If anyone is doing this, I would appreciate any info.

I'd like to hear some more about this how are you getting the stuff on your screen ? I'd like to have autotap and such on a screen that would be really nice

I have a TC1000 Compaq and, actually, thought of do this; I may decide to go this route as I get into it. But, it would be nice to have the touchscreen conveniently mounted for GPS tracking. You are right, though, wiring the Compaq would be easier.

Thanks for the input.

I bought the touchscreen and PC as a package from THIS SITE

The touchscreen can be purchased from HERE

 

[coleman]

which one did you get?

i'd absolutely *LOVE* to do this for fun!
this could be awesome! ... another hobby :thumbsup:

 

[maoun]

how well does that USB screen work for DVDs, etc...

 

[coleman]

assuming VGA analog input, but USB for touch screen.

 

[maoun]

I'm also interested in this could you set it up to play mp3's and such then mount the screen where the stock head unit is ? This seems like it could be alot of fun use this to run your autotap along with all your programs for tuning when we get that option. Also you could hook up a wideband so it's all there

 

[maoun]

yup, all that would work very easily

the one in my 95 cobra fully ran the car.

just remember guys, it's a lot of headache

i'm not going to replace the stock radio because i already have AUX in.
not to mention that i have no idea what i'm doing when it comes to radio/speakers/etc...

autotap, mp3s, dvds, w/ touch screen ... bring it on!

I think this will be one of my next things to do this is pretty awesome I guess I should get to work and make some money

 

[maoun]

yeah really...i'm here at work....trying to do some, but those damn e-mail alerts keep comin...and who am i to deny SVTP!

 

[redaddiction]

So what models are ya'll looking at I'm not a pro when it comes with this stuff but I"m with coleman I'd like to be able to play dvd's music autotap and programing the computer also does anyone know how to get wireless computer with your cell phone ?

I know that I may be a downer here but are the cpu's vibration resistant? Will they withstand that rigors of day to day driving, hard driving, and so on? Also what about heat? Sorry I am very interested I would just be interested to find out if it would be plausible without having to buy a new hard drive every several months.
