Hi,

thats a simple Win10 Tablet. So i could run "TunerStudio" on them, conneced via Bluetooth with my MegaSquirt ECU. The Dash are created by myself (first try), so i could see all relevant data while driving.
Cost : about 100€ and 3h(80€ Tablet, 5€ DC/DC, 10€ Bluetoothmodul for the ECU).

I buy also heat shield wrap and plates. So i could get my engine to wrap with. This reduce the coldstart-Time significantly and dont let the engine cool out between two drives.

Actual the car consumes about 3,9l/100km in City with under 15km waylength and with coldstart

Hi,
i bould my own hub cap with Pizza Pans

And the fuel consumtion is now under 4l/100km also in "worst case".
Short distance, cold engine, many traffic lights, no engine turn off (because of the logging).

Great dash display. I will be following this thread. I have done an upper grill block and a full belly pan on my Mk IV Golf. I am getting just just less than 4l/100km or 60mpg US. I have a very steep driveway so I have not made the commitment to a boattail. I tested flat wheel covers but didn't seem to see any improvement.
