Fusion brain- USB, 16 digital outputs, 13 anolog inputs.

If I picked something like this up, what are the chances that I could add fuel guage and turn signal indicators, that sort of stuff? Probly bring the speed through that too. I'm a little concerned about interface issues, but this would be pretty good.

If you look through my theads you'll see how I did my fuel gauge as a normal gauge in MT and TS.

I like the whole fusion brain thing - the software is very cool. I'm considering using it for HVAC control.

I would be interested how the firmware works... What sort of visibility does it give into the ports?
It very much looks like that board could do what you are looking for once TunerStudio fully supports multiple concurrent (non-CAN) devices, but it might take some firmware work depending on what current firmware does.

It really seems like a GPIO board is what you really need. TunerSudio already support reading it through the MS2 with CAN too.
I don't know what the current status of them is though.... They have to be close to being readily available? Browse through and see.

they are available.. but maybe the GPIO would be a better choice for me.
