software for laptop in fast and the furious.

ok so in the first Fast and the Furious Paul Walker has that little laptop in this eclipse.

well if you remember in the scene where the 4 of them are about to race he revs his car and it shows a quick second of the laptop and the program thats on there.



anyone know the name of that program? of if its even a real program.
if not, are there any programs that are similar to it. or even the program he has on his deck screen that flips out.

pictures of the screens would sure help a lot. That movie was only years ago.

There are several ... Certain Pioneer flip ups have a built in gauge simulation program on board ... There is even one for the nintendo handhelds ...

The Fast and furious one is "fictional" there are a few out there that will run but it's about $1000 for the software and "adapter" that takes the OBDII port signals and converts it to a computer input

HAHA, you can get OBDII software and a reader for under 200 bucks.

well here the deck screen.
i just am still trying to figure out what brand this is. i mean it looks real.


then this is from the laptop on his seat.

this one looks fake, but im not sure.



they both might be.
are these look real or fake?

OBDII readers are under $100 BUT ones that convert to go into laptop ports are CUSTOM and big $$$
There are big Data Logging ones as well that record into the laptops and then can replay the entire race sequence either for 1/4 mile drags or road racing

And are you just wanting monitor / display function or do you want true stand alone fuel /engine management ???

stand alone management.

lulz gunna get your PT haulin ballage?

I got one on the Dyno laptop that we do on road tunning and driving on track and road use.... Depends on what you wanting to do... we got about 2-3k in the laptop w/ most software...

It is sitting now ;( packed up with a dyno mustang that I took with me from the shop ;) hehehe

Anyone need a 100k AWD dyno?


Also just get an apexi afc ;) splice it into your ecu and you get what you want...

Probably WAY overkill unless you are juiced or turboed
But it doesn't have way cool software
