c'mon now, put your mad skills to some good use

You know there has to be something that people need, how about a diy efie? That intercepts a narrow bandwith o2 sensor and adds a user controlled delay to lean out the mixture (based on conditions, could even leverage obd for all the sensor values if needed)? maybe with injector pulse feedback or somethin?

I dunno, just trying to think of something that might have a demand and be productive.

Not much diy in the fine tuned water/methanol injection department either.

An although we have diy mpg gauge out the yang, there are some useful features that no-one has sorted out yet:
two that come to mind are cDA computing and determining the most efficient acceleration curve.

You have given me an idea, We should probably start a diy wishlist.
