I don't know if there is a market but there is definitively material for a new thread (and if not, this one might be jacked up)
Thanks, I will think about it.

The next step would be to have the fuel consumption in l/100 km. For that, I already have an alternative signal (self-made, my speedo is mechanical) for speed. Now, I would need something that can handle the different types of signals in input, do the calculation ((flow2-flow1)/distance) and display it.

Is Arduino capable of that and how complex would that be ?
