Can I tune my car with Mogul???
 

Hey guys! I was wondering if I can tune my car with my phone. I am buying a TurboXS UTEC ( engine management system) and I will need to connect a laptop/pda to it to do anything to it. Does anybody know if my phone will be able to do what a laptop can do for my car? Any help or comments would be appreciated. TIA!

here is the link to some info on the exact unit I am getting.

I really doubt it. Engine managment requires some kind of software that I doubt is set up for the ppc, nevermind how you would connect it to ur ppc.

What kind of car out of curiosity?

Its an 03 Mitsubishi Evo 8

This might be what you're looking for:

Software and more hardware here.

(I haven't used those yet myself, so I can't vouch for them. By coincidence, I had been researching this stuff in the past few days in preparation for a carputer that I'm planning to put together.)


Edit:
Here's a Bluetooth OBD interface. Too cool.


... But again I'm not sure if that's the kind of thing you were looking for or if you already have what you need. ... Looks like the thing you linked to is a lot more comprehensive than OBD.

Hmm... not quite, but I think we are getting really close. On the link it says that any laptop or pda with windows 3.1 or above can be used. I wonder if windows mobile 6 would count as a higher version than windows 3.1.

someone on evom posted about logging to his ppc it would take me some time to dig up the thread though

Really, I'm a member on there I guess I should check there too huh? Duh!

i dont see why not, banks has a diesel tuner for a pda.
