Just how slow it the engine interface? What other functions can it monitor?

On average, it seems to update once or twice a second but sometimes it pauses for several seconds. It also seems like there is a delay in the data compared to real time.....as an example if I rev the engine quickly to 4K and back to idle, the engine will be back down to idle before the gauge begins its climb. I'm hoping it gets better when they update the software to fix the other display issue. It can also monitor engine load percent, battery voltage and throttle position.....that's all I can remember right now.

Come on now......nobody has a picture of a Kenwood 9960 or 9980 installed so I can see if it sticks out of the dash as much as mine.

I'll get you a pic of my 9960 tomorrow. I spaced it today.

Can you clear engine codes?

9960 pic. Don't mind the dust.

Thanks for the pic!! It looks like it sticks out of the dash about the same amount that mine does. I was expecting it to be a lot more flush and when I asked the installer to move it back more, he said he couldn't because there wasn't enough clearance. I was hoping I could prove him wrong with a pic, but it looks like he may be right.

No problem. Sometime in the next month, I'm going to be pulling out my console, so I'll take a look and see if there's any room to move it back. It wouldn't take much.

If you or your installer have enough patience you can drill new holes in the brackets and move it back some.
