Here's my goal... I'm going to put together a Linux car computer with an LCD display. I'd like to have a RS-232 (or some other digital link) between that computer and the car's ECU. That way, I can have software on the Linux computer to display stats and graphs and change performance settings on the fly (sort of like that pop-out LCD in the Eclipse in The Fast and the Furious). Who makes a good ECU that has an RS-232 link that can have its performance info changed while the car is running without puking?
