The install is easy as can be. You just need to velcro and stick it there is a plug in the back that connects to the diag. port. The 1/4 mile and such would be read by computer and the Dash Hawk so it should be very accurate.

IonNinja

so it draws its power from the port? does it turn off/on with the car?

cobaltstg2

to bad this is not and option for us 2.0 guys... i like the look of this better

shortyhend2004

Yes it does turn key and it starts up.... Then turn key off and it shuts itself off in a few seconds of seeing no power

Wow, i've never heard of this unit before, looks really cool. I'm gonna have to look into picking one of these up this summer.

DoubleClutchin_ION2

so im guessing you cant tune with it?

IonNinja

no its not a tuner...it just allows you to view information. will be useful though when tuning becomes available because as I understand it, the thing can log data.

I just ordered mine Friday night...

CobaltPerformanceParts

We just added this to our catalog also. Great job at finding new products guys!

shortyhend2004

This product is awesome too!! You will not be mad about this one. Also I need to figure out how to make a wide-band work anyone figured that out yet?

Also if you cant decide just think how nice it would be to have 20+ gauges all digital for under 300?

Hey, off subject, but how did you get that avatar? I'm freaking addicted to Achievements on the 360 and that avatar kicks ass!

Tha Cavi Kid

this friday, mine will be ordered

06_ion2

yes msd will be releasing a wideband adapter kit for this in the next month or so just got to wait

shortyhend2004

Sweet not really needing it but just something i wanted to know incase real mods come soon? Turbo or just play with some nitrous and build a different real fast car....?

beamSS

interceptor ftw

shortyhend2004

not for the 2.2 tho^^

IonNinja

so for those that already have it, how can I get this baby to read fuel pressure? I don't know if this is a param that can be read by the stock ECM.

R&C_rallySS

WTF is that BS!

shortyhend2004

Im not sure haha it may be one of the inputs it supports? It said N/A when i tried, I just got it less than a week ago and havent really messed with it too much...

Well this may be part of you question/ answer..... Just found this by the way From MSDIGNITION.com in the dash hawk forum

Check the downloads area early next week (2/23/07) for new releases for both Gen I and Gen II to bring a lot of new features! These include:
1.GM/Ford/DCx specific PIDs are now marked with a "+" if they are not supported. This applies to PIDs that are rejected by the ECU.

2.Some additional startup diagnostics to refine vehicle ID detection logic (mainly for the manufacturer specific PIDs)
Added some stuff for Flex Fuel capable vehicles to show fuel type and alcohol % in the fuel (in vehicles that support reporting that data)

3.OEM (Factory) WideBand O2 Sensor readings for Voltage , Heater Current, and Equiv Ratio. Supports up to 8 OEM sensors.

4.High range Fuel Pressure readings (the direct injection gasoline systems operate in the realm that is usually only found in common rail diesel engines!).

5.Updated documentation to match the release that has been reformatted to make it easier to just print changed pages (and not have to reprint the entire thing).

6.Fix for MDS Status (Hemi Dodge) to be more accurate (previously "jittered" too fast to read)

7.Fix for Knock Sensor voltage on Dodges (more precision)

Targeting to have Transmission specific parameters for GM (temp, etc.), depending on testing, but it looks like it will be ready.

These will be posted as v1.1.4 (Gen I) and V2.0.3 (Gen II) on the downloads page as soon as testing finishes!

06_ion2

doesn't read oil or fuel pressure but oh well it does alot of other stuff also

IonNinja

damn, is there anyway to make it do so?

guess I'm still gonna need that dual gauge steering column pod for my nitrous & fuel pressure...

WELL the new updated version is out...... Thats the link to download it....

Psykostevo

Now I understand that it is not compatable with the 2.0L LSJ, or is it?!

Oh that makes sense. The LSJ is CAN-di not CAN. Shitz! I like the dash hawks options way more than the Aeroforce!

LewiSS

Just installed mine on my 2.4. Fabulous! It will be used to record parameters to direct the tune of the turbo kit going on in a week or two.

shortyhend2004, I've seen your name on the Dashhawk forum, I believe. I've signed up but it won't let me post yet. I had a question for them:

1. Is there any plan to make the alerts user-programmable? Now there are set alerts that you can adjust the alert point, but I can't see that you can choose a function to alert. For us turbo kit people, an alert for MAP past a certain point (run-away boost) and one for knock sensor triggering (critical on turbo engines) would be ideal.

Your mounting pics inspired me to do the same thing. Did you use the crappy velcro they supplied? It didn't stick to my car, so I went to Radio Shack and got some REAL velcro. That sucker is stuck for life!

shortyhend2004

I used the supplied velcro been on since the day i bought it fine. They suck at allowing you to post send a PM to a head guy on there and they allow you then. I want to get them to do better param. on the Cobalts. What we have now is great dont get me wrong but that list has way too many + on it for me haha.
