Hymee RX8 Engine Analyser. Because that's what it is after all, like the Hymee catback, the Hymee Grill Kit, theHymee S/C Kit, the Hymee Short Shifter, the Hymee 7-speed Automated Sequential Gearbox...
And with an "s" as in British English (and Australian?), in order not to get confused with (or sued by) Performance Trends Engine Analyzer (that actually is an engine simulator software). http://www.performancetrends.com/

The readouts are way off scale as they're showing theoretical maximum (based on the OBD specs). This will change for the final version.

I'll give you a big hint. :D

Good news... the interface turned up today. It's going to be a fun weekend. We have to do some minor modifications before we can test the new interface, but as soon as we know how it's looking, you'll all be the first to know.

What? Is it the fact that there is no unit displayed on your digital readouts? That's no good, is it?

No, they are a custom mixture of imperial and metric...

What the config for AFR means is this...

You can select "Lambda" or the "Ratio"

Lamba is always 1.0 at "stoich", any fuel. It is an O2 based reading.

The Ratio is like 14:1 etc. For that, you need to specify the "stoich" value for the fuel you are using for it to be accurate. 14.7:1 is "close" but not exact. If you are using some other fuel, it would be different. Like Nitromethane is 4:1 or something really "rich" by comparison.

Cheers,
Hymee.
