BTW, for street guys who don't need the GPS function and are only looking for the dash, Racepak does offer a dash-only IQ3 "Display Dash" setup without the GPS and accelerometers. $625 on our website right now. The only downside is that you'll have to get a VSS signal into the dash, or else you won't have a speedometer (the IQ3 Logger Dash uses the GPS to calculate speed). Other than that, you get all of the same bitchin' warning functions, shift lights, etc.

If I buy the 'display only' dash, can I use it as a speedo/tach/coolant/O2/oil/boost gauge & warnings etc without the EFI Interface Module? My ECU (Adaptronic E420D Basic) isn't on the list.
I've been looking at adding oil pressure/temp, coolant temp and O2 conventional gauges anyway, but there's no way I could easily keep an eye on all that stuff.
I'm guessing I might need one or two of these?

Tach - dash has built in pick up
1. coolant temp
2. WBO2
3. Manifold pressure
4. Speedo
5. Oil pressure or temp
Speedo is the tricky one. NA is spinning cable which gets converted to electronical frequency signal in circuitry of dash. Use the speed drive from an NB (Hall Effect) and you'll generate a square wave signal. The USM can be programmed to with a frequency scale for speed.

I believe some (or most?) of the NA dash clusters have a square wave speedo output that can be accessed on the back of the cluster. I seem to recall it being there for cruise control. Probably worth a look.

It went unanswered, dumbfuck son of bitch bastard. Why don't you go back to wasting bandwidth on secret 1500hp Neons with a super-secret T3 and I'll go back to enriching forum content with my diverse genetics, you can go back to discussing your genetic homogenity.
