I have been using it in my car running Torq with a BlueTooth $15 ODB2<br>
dongle on the default Android OS.<br>

It's a poor-man's instrument system in that it is gated by the <10hz<br>
speed of your car's engine computer, but for $15 total cost (plus<br>
tablet) has provided me real time GPS -> acceleration -> engine detail<br>
logging. You can supposedly load this back into software like GT6 to<br>
play back your run on any of their simulated tracks. Unfortunately<br>
for me Polyphony hasn't released the Angeles Crest update yet. :P<br>
<br>
Depending on your engine computer you can get everything from throttle<br>
position, fuel economy and engine revs to turbo pressure and engine<br>
performance.<br>
<br>
Currently I'm free the evening of the 12th. Ping me on the 11th or<br>
12th to set a time to meet.<br>
