EcuTek ECU Connect App & Dongle – Review
 

When I am at meets etc. people ask about the tablet on my dash. It mainly runs the EcuTek ECU Connect app and I pretty much have it on all the time.

At some point I should probably get the Android module for the OEM infotainment system but this will do for now.

So, as I get a few questions on it, I thought I'd make a video explaining how I've mounted it and the different features of the EcuTek ECU Connect App. This was installed at the same time as some bolt-ons and a tune with Mark from Abbey Motorsport in Oxted, UK.

The device itself isn't cheap, but it is not the same as your typical 'inexpensive' OBDII reader. It is super fast and has much more potential via custom tuner features in the App.

If, like me, you were having a load of other work done anyway, it wasn't a huge percentage on top (and of course, if you are buying a lot of other parts and services at the same time, I'm sure you can get a deal).

Anyway, thought you might enjoy it...

NOTE: The method I've used for mounting the tablet is not suitable for track use.

Nice review.

The setup part is a great tool, lots of stuff for the end user to play with.

I unfortunately won't use it on my Android head unit because it doesn't run in landscape view for the live gauges. I have to use it on my phone to get the gauges to run, which is a pretty silly limitation. For now I'll keep using Torque for gauges.

I use the BlueDriver OB2 scanner for my gauges which does work in landscape view.
