TXS dtec gameboy, what do you guys think?

I was looking at the gameboy program Turbo xs has. Is it any good?

It comes with Boost Gauge, Exhaust Gas Temperature Gauge, Air Temperature Gauge and Tachometer. The only one I have is the tac. It would be nice to have all three in one. What do you guys think?

Actually now that I look at it some more I'm not sure what the starter kit comes with.

I found it disappointingly expensive; $229 + a MAP sensor (boost) at $119 and an EGT sensor for $159 = $507.00, and only gets you two types of data. Add in $99 for the GBA and you are around the price of a stock WRX gauge pod and three DEFI gauges and sensors.

For that money, I'd just get one of these:

Although the GBA does have some unique "bling" qualities to it. I teach video game design for a living, and my students would fall over dead if they saw my GBA as my boost gauge...

I see your point, thats a rip off. I can get a boost gauge for a 100 bucks and have it put in for $60 or less.
