Software help for OBDII
 
I have received my obd II Scanner today and now i want to hook it up to my carpc. I am using centrafuse as my frontend. CAn somebody please tell me where can i get OBD applications which can do the following:

- Integrated into centrafuse
- Display GTR Style Gauges
- Shows me my 0-60mph
- Shows me 1/4 mile time
- Shows me my current and avg fuel economy.

1. Any program can be integrated into Centrafuse. Another story is if it will look good. I use DashCommand.

2. DashCommand is also skinnable which is how I did my GTR esque gauges.

3,4,5. ScanXL has a performance section to it.. you could use that for 0-60 and 1/4 mile time. You can also write a script to calculate fuel economy but since DashCommand can't execute scripts yet you're stuck with ScanXL.

I plan on releasing my 'GTR' skin sometime.. just not yet. You don't know how many people have PMd me about it and how they based their build off mine and if I could send them my DashCommand skin.. I am really honored. However I don't want everyone running around with the same skin. I will probably end up updating my current skin and then I'll release my current one.

You'll probably get more relevant responses if you made this thread in the Interior, Audio & Electronics forum.. or you could ask on mp3car.com.

Thankyou as always alzOrz. You have been such a help.

1. How can i make scanxl calculate fuel economy and how?
2. Where can i get dash command. Is there any free alternative for doing this available i.e. display gauges.
3. Can you give me the skin because i live in pakistan and it wouldn't affect the coolness factor of your car:)

I am a good member and have taken a lot of time to post some useful threads. Just look here i posted something good for the members instead of being a blowhole and suggesting people to search all the time.

i posted a totally ligitimate question and got a totally legitmate answer but you had to ruin it didn't you. If you don't like a thread why not just shut the eff up and let other people help out.
