s.m.a.r.t install and new software
I'm going to use this thread to get the ball rolling on how to do a self-install of the s.m.a.r.t kits. In addition, I'm going to post some updates on my pyXede softare that allows you to collect and analyze the the highspeed xede datalogs.
I don't think that the s.m.a.r.t kits are officially shipping yet, but I expect they will be soon. I ordered some hardware for developement purposes and it looks like this:
Ludikraut and I will be doing the install tomorrowing evening after work. Stay tuned.
If you're wondering about my pyXede software, well it's quickly advancing towards a 2.0 release. Here's a screenshot:
You'll notice the black-4 plots. The top is torque/power, the green is wideband A/F, the white is knock, and the bottom blue is the Xede's timing shift. Notice how the timing is adjusted when the knock events happen.

Another important point is that my software is free -- not just free of charge. You can take the source code, modify it, redistribute it, or do pretty much whatever you want with it.

Where are you getting the bung welded onto the down pipe? I need to find someone to do the same in the area.

Maybe i missed this but how is your software calculating the HP and Torque curves? Do you have a Roaddyno hooked up to it also or something? This looks very interesting. Now I can't wait to get my Smart system in too.

As I said, i'm working on the 2.0 series now, but 1.0 is functional and fairly well tested.
