Arran Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Have any of you guys got one of these in your car? http://www.blitz-uk.co.uk/Product-177.aspx Im thinking of getting one as its so easily connected via the OBD port so no splicing etc and if it does oil temperature its even better! Saves me buying a gauge Plus its a pretty cool thing to have Anyone have any info on them? Cheers Arran Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasso Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Why not have a look at my build thread, I have all the ECU info via the ODB port into my iPhone. I can actually stand away from my car and see the readouts wirelessly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arran Posted October 19, 2012 Author Share Posted October 19, 2012 How much was that fella? Take it uses the obd port like the blitz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasso Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Yup OBD. If you're in iPhone you'll need a wifi OBD, they're about £150 I think. Them the App is about £34. If you're on android, you can connect via Bluetooth and the OBD units are about £80-100. I think. The beauty is you can plug it into any car you like as long as its got OBD capabilities. A mate of mine will be borrowing mine for track day stuff. Simple give him the cable and he will purchase the App. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaddyCee Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 for the uninitiated.... what is the OBD port and where is it in the vehicle please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasso Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 On Board Diagnostics Multi pin plug, located right hand side of the steering wheel, beneath the hood latch. Basically connects hardware/software to the ECU. Used by garages for engine diagnostics or general viewing of what the ECU see's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
