I like the idea of the MPGuino as battery charge indicator but that's way beyond me. You should post that on the development thread. You can say I'm for it too.

I have an auto trans too. It's sure frustrating when you can feel all that wasted energy before the lockup engages. I'm trying to retard the downshift on mine so I can p+g on the highway. No luck with loosening the throttle linkage so far I'm hoping there's a vacuum fix.
