Very nice. I asume they are active only while the car is in motion. Do you have pics of the installation?

I am sorry no pics of installation. i placed the "BLITZ Live Unit which controls the Meters" near the ABS ECU from which i get also +12/GND and the SPD Signal. It was a noisome job to get access on the ABS pinouts, coz it is sooooo poky under the drivers dash... I have to install the OIL Temp Sensor shortly together with the TEIN CS.

JUST TAKE A LOOK HERE

Some nice sidefx : you don't need to bring your car to the dyno. the messurment of the BLITZ is very close to a real dyno just test that a several times on my MKIV and GT4...

but there is more to come from BLITZ shortly: called R-VIT iColor Meter which just pluged to the OBDII interface under the drivers dash. it will display all engine data and with an enhanced realtime dyno on board...

yes - belive it! trust me... unless you feed it with the correct values of your cars total weight including yourself and some other parameters - it will bring you close to the dyno numbers. bad thing is: no torque is displayed because of missing RPM signal, but this is what the upcoming R-VIT will do... a must have toy if you asked me

some other sidefx is : you can reprogram the speedlimiter and set it to a number of you choice. so if your wife is driving set it maybe to 40 mph

Latest News form Japan:

The R-VIT i-Color will be available in Spring at around 60.000 YEN = 438 EUR = 525 USD

p.s.

My POWER-METER peaked at 275 PS at 110 km/h i can't take it further at the moment because of bad weather conditions... based on my other experiences the car should make about 310-320 PS. Let you know if i can do a real highspeed testdrive on the german "Autobahn".
