Since my car is street legal, I'm using their UDX display-only dash for now. I can upgrade to datalogging in the future if I wanted to since it's offered as an option.

To be honest though, I'm carbureted so there would be little tuning benefits other than to dial in the carb.


The software itself is very tempermental, especially the interface. I haven't seen the code, but to me it feels like their software engineers didn't tie up their lose ends. I speculate that they have a lot of loose ends in their modules, like not doing error checking, exception handling, out-of-bound entries, not resetting/initializing loop counters, not reading the specs, not programming according to the specs, etc.

I haven't had a chance to play with their data logging software, but I know how exacting you are Gary, and I think you would find similar annoyances that I found.

All this stuff is okay if you're just doing displaying-only, but I'm guessing that if the software screw up with the data logger functionality and it dumps/corrupts your data, you would be royally pissed.
