    Honestly, it looks pretty good. If you didnt have a laptop that would be a good way to go. I have a laptop with the AKM cable and software so i can pretty much do the same stuff for way cheaper. But like i said, i have a laptop, if you didnt have one, that would be a good package...... its supposed to release this month.

      The Summit listing didn't appear to address what year cars the system will work with. I'd bet its OBD-II only. If it is, you would need to find out if it reads only the "basic" OBD-II data, or the more valuable "enhanced" OBD-II manufacturer specific data.

      In essence, what you get is a combination of AutoTap and a g-Tech PRO. You could buy both of those for about 1/2 the price. AutoMeter now has the equivalent of the g-Tech PRO in a gauge that fits in a standard gauge pod or A-pillar mount.

          It is OBD2 and way overpriced. Nice to have it all in one package, though.

            A buddy of mine just got a Snap On MT2500 diagnostic scanner. It is really a good tool and very comprehensive. It has the ability to do much, much more than that Hypertech and you can find them on ebay for about the same price.

              Now that's cool! It would be cool to accurately document performance before and after a mod. I've got to have one . . . .

                  Not so! I switched my car to OBD1 platform just so I could run the less expensive version of LT1 edit or tunercat.......which someday I may actually get to buying and installing

                    The AutoMeter "Dynamic Performance Information Center" (D-PIC) was shown in the March 2005 issue of Chevy High Performance magazine. Appears to be part # 6180, and comes in the Cobalt and Ultra-Lite series. Digital readout of:
                    -choice of forward/backward or lateral acceleration
                    -0-60, 60-0 times/distance
                    -1/4-mile data
                    -peak wheel HP
                    -reaction time

                    Fits in a 2-1/16" gauge mount.

                    I can't find it on the AutoMeter site either.
