PERMANENT - mounted to the dash / console.

I guess those words can be AMBIGUOUS. I should have made myself more clear in original post.



(couldn't tell if one post was facetious or serious.. ( anyway, do new cars' display show pulsewidth? EVAP purge cycle? etc.?) )

Okay.. has it been done with OBD1.. not to my knowledge, but I am pretty sure my post still addressed some of the pieces, You still have not answered if you need it to actually record the data, if so how fast?

Why not just a CarPC in place of the stereo then your choice of datalogger.. that will work too.

This is something I have wanted to try, just not sure when I would get to it. I have seen one where it would display but not record the data that would essentially be permanent

The Issue that could potentially be there is the Datalogger has to silence the CCM for the fast as fast can be logging, on a permanent install I am not sure how well the car would react all the time to that, so that is an unknown.
