Default UTEC Display on OEM Navi

I finally got my UTEC to display it's data on my OEM navi screen ('04 coupe, fully built, APS TT).

The downside is that a laptop is required, the upside is that when I need the display I will most likely be dataloggin anyway, so my laptop will be there. The laptop is running software developed by Jason Mussetter (http://www.mpsav.com) and basically displays the output of the UTEC on the screen of a computer. I am using a generic Composite -> RGB adapter to display my laptop screen on my Navi screen.

To switch back and forth between OEM navi and UTEC info I am using a KPtechnologies 'navi ok bypass' module with AUX output capability. Besides processing the 'OK' disclaimer every time the car is started it also has a programmable output that can be activated through the 'OK' button. The module also features a 'beep' confirmation to let you know that it is working (more usable in other modes, but still kinda nice to have).

One vid is on the road, the other vid is parked and shows the entire start up procedure:

Kevin,

That's very cool but all the #s look very low. Like your boost and injector duty %. Is that accurate?

I never went above 40% throttle, so I never really got in to boost.

I've never checked on the duty cycle, but I would guess that to be right with my 650cc injectors and partial throttle.

very cool kevin.

I have the TVandNAV2Go box. I assume that you can use that software to interface with that unit also.

The box I have is the same one as the one that TVNavtoGo sells, only I bought it directly from the manufacturer for $50.

If you can get the Greddy EU to display its data on a laptop screen you should be able to make it work.

Wow Kevin! Can I get you to do this with my G next spring after my build? How much would you charge? I'm seriously considering switching to UTEC at that time.
