I am also very interested in this application. I've been using AIM Evo3 and XG Log.

any more info on this. HRtuning makes a tunverview II screen that plugs into the USB port on s300 and displays ANYTHING that s300 can read and display, its merely a cheapo version of an aim dash so why is this so hard, what would be needed if i he can do it to get this to work for the aim dash for christ sake?

it seems like hondata has made enough money out of s300 because there is so much more features that can be added and hondata consistently refuse to implement them.if hondata don't want to develop s300 anymore i think they should just say it,so persons can seek other alternatives(seems like its slowly becoming crome)

It depends whether u want a track car or a show car for the parking lot jigga.

Do u really need a screen for that sort of info in your car?

The last few laps i did,i found it hard to look at the lap timer,let alone some fancy superfluous display unit....

Analogue gauges are best for peripheral vision....

if u really want to get fancy,then just look into pulling the display screen from sManager onto a viewable option of your choice,then u can have whatever u want sitting on it......naked ladies backing your gauges if u wish.....

ehh, no, i just dont see what is so hard about getting us the needed info to get it done. the dash loggers can display the s300 stuff and then log the other stuff that you cant fit into s300, like shock travel, gmeter, etc.

You have to have a laptop in the car to do your own screen and display from the s300 interface so thats out of the question and a band aid.

Comments like this really bother me. Hondata has been so good to us. They have been adding requested items for us for a long time, constantly making the system better. You should consider yourself fortunate to have gotten such a good system for the money. Considering the only systems that give you more options are thousands more, you should be more than happy with the system you have.

i am not trying to bash hondata but i have all four systems for my car that uses the stock honda ecu and IN MY OPINION hondata is just in front of the SHINY one the other two are basically on par with each other,and they are both full of features and reliable as well.

You may not have been trying to bash them, but it sure looks like you did a good job of it. I don't know anything about those sytems. I looked on chrome's web site and I can't find anything that shows any more features.
Why don't you enlighten me. You can IM me.

who cares, the fact is that s300 is more than capable of outputting some sort of signal because tunerview can plug up via USB and display all of it. Tunerview is the brainchild of the creator of NEPTUNE....so WTF?

If you read our posts on this thread you'll see we've explained why the S300 cannot interface directly to a dash, and what needs to be done to read from the S300 - to the point of listing the USB interface IC.
