Yes, I'm running the hks camp2, I only got 3 optional sensors hooked up to It which is oil temp, oil pressure and boost. The sensors are not easy to tap into our car's. I had to buy a oil pan spacer and tap the oil temp there, had to get a oil distribution adapter from GTM and tap it from the stock oil pressure sensor for the hks pressure sensor to work. The boost was easy, just tap it into a manifold vac line lol.
There's 2 more sensors which is egt(exhaust gas temp) and fuel pressure which I don't have. You have to tap the egt into your headers to get an accurate reading. I'm not sure where to tap the fuel pressure at tho. ALso, the hks camp2 cannot support AFR. Gotta get a either a single air/fuel gauge or if you're a baller get the hks afk knock amp LOL.

Shumby if you have anything to add I would still appreciate hearing from you, or anyone else also.

Thanks for the information Weiboy, this is what I was looking for. I could not remember which gages you were running. It sounds like some of the extra sensors are a PIA to install. I will keep saving my pennies and maybe get serious about gages this summer.

But yeah, the sensors are a pain and should be left for the pro's to mess with. I'm sure your shop can do It no problems. One more thing to add is do you want to be able to listen to music while watching your gauges? There's this module that is available for our car that bypass your factory screen and enables you to do that. Best of all is You don't have to splice into your factory wirings. I have all that info for you when you're ready. Shumby done it, Frank done it also. Both got no complaints and loving it

If your just wanting some gauges to monitor look at the PLX Kiwi Wifi. I have it for my iPhone and it works great. It shows everything from engine rpm, to intake temp and coolant temp, to a/f ratios. Pretty much the only thing it doesn't monitor that I wish it would is engine oil temp. I have a windshield mount for my iphone and just put it right under my rear view mirror and it works great. They also have a bluetooth version for the droid phones too.

Dal, I think Wei also has a video somewhere here on the forums of him using his bypass to view his gauges and listen to music at the same time... I forget which thread it's in though.

Do you have to connect through WiFi on the iPhone or is connected through Bluetooth??

I will look around for Wei's post later this evening.

for fuel pressure you will need to get an adapter that looks like a spacer that can go between the fuel damper and metal hose that goes to the fuel rail. I'm hopefully going to do a carputer myself like modme did. I want to be able to everything. There is no best of all worlds solution except the carputer route at the moment to get all readings.
