It shows you what you want it to!
You can pick from a list of parameters for it to display.
Ranges with everything from Fuel consumption, to inlet manifold pressure, throttle position, everything!
Very nice bit of kit.
Sounds good! How much does it cost to "unlock" it for me to buy one and use on my car?

Looks like this is going to be a busy weekend for me and the car

Set to work on the car today.
Managed to get the quickshift fitted without the gearbox pin. Im not going to bother fitting the pin, the throw is hugely shorter, a bit too short to be honest, but feels very positive, so thats not bad!
Managed to get a few filthy pics of her mind:

More updates!
Had an early start on the car today, as there were a few bits and pieces I wanted doing before the weekend was out.
I wanted to fit my brand new throttle cable, as a sticky throttle was royally pissing me off. I wanted to get my Skoda Fabia splitter fitted, and I wanted to fit my Goodridge hoses. On top of this, I needed to give it a good wash and hoover, as it had been neglected for a few weeks.
So, to start, fitted the new throttle cable! Bit of an annoying job to get in behind the sound deadening of the engine bay, but very worth it to stop the throttle sticking!
I did have a few pictures of this but they appear to have disappeared off of my phone :/.
Next job was to tackle fitting the Skoda splitter... For this, I thought it best to remove the front bumper:
Very easy job to remove the bumper, much easier than I thought it would be!
Next we set about drilling and riveting the splitter to the bumper:
Finished!:
Whilst the bumper was off, I thought it best to remove all of the rust on the front of the car with a wire brush, treat it, and give it a lovely coat of Hammerite!
I honestly do not know how I would survive without the stuff!
Bumper refitted
Next job was to crack on with fitting the Goodridge hoses, before:
Please excuse the muddy arches
Front hoses fitted!
I have just bought a new set of discs and pads to be fitted next week as these are getting on a little bit. Will have the calipers off to give them a good clean up and another lick of paint! But what colour to go for? Im thinking possibly yellow...?
Unfortunately we didnt manage to get the rear Goodridge hoses fitted today, as I was having problems with a binding rear brake caliper. After stripping it down, greasing it up refitting it and still having the same problems, it turned out that the sliders had siezed. So we spent the remainder of the day sorting that out, with no daylight left to fit the hoses. They will be going on next week with the new discs and paaaads (if they arrive in time).
Quick dirty picture:
Also...
Managed to wash the car in the dark, but didnt get any pictures as it was pretty dark. Will have to get some throughout the week to show off the new splitter!
Comments welcome, cheers.

68k....thats nothing
Cheers mate!
Splitter scrapes on everything
Hit it a few times yesterday on small things, luckily not at speed..
May have to raise the front end a little now haha.
68k is something! Shes nearly 70k

Don't worry about the splitter scraping, just replace after every 6k and you'll be fine! Mine has lasted forever.
Car is looking brilliant though, I can't wait to get my f1's on now.

Haha, it was £12 so im happy to replace when I finally manage to rip it off!
Makes the front end look a hell of a lot better though!
Cheers man, I love the look of your car on Ed's old wheels!
Also.. I need to get myself one of those Costco jacks
Cheers mate! Its not black, its a very dark grey, needs respraying though as its chipped
.lookin good mate!
have you noticed any difference with the goodridge hoses?
calipers would look good in yellow
I havent noticed any difference if im honest. Still need to get the rear hoses fitted and bleed the entire system with some decent fluid. Will report back then
.I am leaning towards yellow! I will update with what colour I have chosen after they have been painted on the weekend
.Haha, thats a lot! I have managed just over 6k since March I think. Ha!
Good spot
If you look closer, there are actually 2, there is one just above the bumper and directly below the other one
Need to get them sorted actually, hopefully wont cost too much!
Haha I know, I'm a bit of a mileage freak though..
Haha its ok actually. Not as bad as I thought it may be. But then again I havent driven over any speed bumps
.Also, I didnt think this was possible..
Managed it on the weekend on the way back from the New Forest..

Few more updates!
The discs and pads have needed changing since I have had the car.
Having bought the discs and pads during the week, and having a free afternoon, thought I would fit them to save me from doing it over the weekend.
Firstly, the new discs and pads.
Brembo HC's, and EBC Greenstuff pads. I know the pads get mixed reviews, but we shall see how they perform!
The state of the old discs and pads on the car:
Fitting was very easy! Took under 30 mins for both sides of the car! Luckily none of the bolts were siezed!
Fitted:
Thought I would take a picture of the state of the old discs and pads. Very happy I changed them when I did as they would not have lasted much longer the state they were in!
Finished!
So far so good!
Very happy with both purchases. Braking performance is 100% improved!
Fitting the rear Goodridge hoses tomorrow, fitting the new rear pads and bleeding the system with some decent brake fluid.
Hopefully will be pretty awesome when done
Cheers!

Managed to get some more work done to the car yesterday.
I had a set of Powerflex wishbone bushes sat around for ages waiting to go on. As I had nothing better to do, I thought I would tackle the challenge :evil:.
So..
Wishbones out!
Apologies for the blurry photography
Next job was to remove the old bushes, and set about fitting the new collar inserts for the Powerflex bushes:
Welder in the background primed, ready for welding the collars in!
Took a fair bit of work to get them fitted mind, they just wouldnt go in!
Once that was done, all that was left to do was fit the bushes and steel inserts.
Also gave them a lick of hammerite to freshen them up a little:
Was a bit of a squeeze to get them refitted to the car, but managed to get them all bolted up without much trouble!
Refitted:
Gave the suspension legs a little rust treat and Hammerite as well, as they were looking a little rusty!
The eagle eyed amongst you will have noticed that I have now fitted my Eibach camber bolts. But due to any adjustment in the camber causing the wheels to scrub the coilovers, I had to remove them again.
Looks like I may have to run some spacers :evil:
Had a little go at polishing the "RenaultSport" logo on the inlet:
Shinyy!!
Cheers!

I may, or may not have just purchased one of these:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170512573126&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
Hoping that it is as good as everyone has made it out to be!
Bought this this week before buying rear discs as I thought they would be selling pretty quickly and they only had 5 in stock!
Hopefully I will recieve it before the weekend and get it fitted on Saturday. More updates/pics to follow when that happens
EDIT:
Thought bugger it, may as well fit the new rear discs and pads whilst the rear of the car is up having the Whiteline and Goodridge rear hoses fitted, so just bought these:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250605807071&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
Quite an expensive Monday morning if you ask me! Haha.
Should sort her out for a while..
Oh and on top of that... I have literally just had to renew my car tax
Next on the list of things to do.... Moarrrr power?

supercharge??? LOL
Ha, if funds permit....... Hm
Please tell me you are joking? I wanted bearings and ABS rings to save buggering around though.. Just slap them on and away I go!
Ha, thanks man
I must admit, I wasnt too fond to begin with, but it has really grown on me!

Had a nice little surprise waiting for me at home
Very very good service from Demon Tweeks, very happy!
Want to fit it asap, so I might make time to do it tonight

Thanks very much mate!
I do my best to keep it all up together :approve:.
Few more bits arrived today courtesy of mr DHL (and my credit card)
New rear discs ready to be fitted on the weeeeeeekend!
Also.. I am currently looking into getting a new exhaust..
I am getting annoyed with the Ktec if im honest. Its just far too loud and boomy for me. I was thinking about swapping my straight through mid-section for a silenced one. But a BTB exhaust tickles my fancy a little bit more :evil:
Decisions decisions..

Cheers mate. Always good to get good feedback
.Looks like my Saturday morning is set
Mate, this is an UNREAL example of one of these car's, you take while good care of it!
Must admit at first I didn't really like the PH1's but reading through this thread they have grown on me significantly!
Keep it up & keep us updated!
Nice set of alloys or an alloy refurb & colour code would be a very nice touch IMO but this is TIDY!

Thank you very much mate!
To get the wheels refurbed is definitely the next thing on the list to do. They are looking very tired now, so just to find somewhere local that will do them for cheap now!
I may also look into getting the front end and rear bumper sprayed due to stonechips etc, but that is way down the line as it doesnt really bother me.
Apart from that I am stuck with things I want to do!
fun filled weekend
Im thinking about fitting it tonight if it isnt -932443 degrees outside again.
Will definitely get my thoughts and opinions on the Whiteline posted up.
Cheers!

Riiiiiiiiiiiight!
Well how do I put this..
I got bored.. And, the Whiteline somehow found its way onto the rear beam of my car...
Finished work at 20:30 :dead:, had nothing better to do, so backed the PH1 on the drive and cracked on!
Went straight on without any problems!
Pics:
Please excuse the poor photography! I forgot to take some pics whilst the car was in the air, so had to get them off the axle stands, which meant lying down on a freezing cold drive, with numb hands..
Time to take it for a drive.

Good work, give us a review upon your return.
I'm buying one soon.

Cheers Rob!
Well all I can say is wow!
As can be seen from the pics, I have it set on its softest setting, and my god it makes such a difference!
There is so much less bodyroll, and the car feels more composed, and as everyone else has said, more "planted" to the road.
Worth every penny of £160.
Going to play around with the hardness settings on the weekend. See if I can get it to feel a little better.
Overall, very very impressed. Good purchase!

Riiiight! Some Saturday morning progress as promised.
Nothing exciting unfortunately, but lots of pictures!
So, the goal for today was to fit the Goodridge rear hoses, and the new rear discs and pads.
Ontop of that lot, I managed to give her a very good wash, leather clean/balm, cleaned all glass inside and out. Very happy with the results! So.. The pictures.
First thing was to get the car jacked up.
This is showing the state of the old discs and pads!
Cheeky picture of the Whiteline
Few more random pics:
Dirty much?
Next thing was to remove the old discs, which proved to be extremely easy!
Slap the new discs and pads on, and thats one job down!
Stance...
Wheels back on:
Next thing on my list of things to do, was get rid of the old hoses, and replace them with some nice new Goodridge items.
Old:
New!
Looking pretty evil :evil:
Right, with my to do list for today completed. I wanted to give it a quick wash.
Unfortunately that turned into about 3 and a half hours of buggering around, doing the interior and exterior!
Enjoy!
