what i am after doing is loosing all my boost gagues ect and putting a screen into my dash that will display them on screen. so really its a converter. will need to put boost hose into conveter and get a digital image on a screen.

ideally i would want

boost
oil pressure
fuel mixutre

going to have a look myself now but wondered if anyone had anything like this already

I'd look into getting a carputer, would be a lot more versatile.

Carputer = in car computer

Have a google for that and "in car PC". There's a few shops around and about that will sell all the gubbins; you'd probably find it a lot easier to wire an input to that and source some software to rear it, rather than fudge something unique up
