just hook it to your normal pc. it works fine just cant tune it while your driving. so to over come that put the rear on stands so it still acts like its driving.

its not for tuning purposes its for displaying my engine data while im driving as its more accurate them the guages on the dash.
i have got a temporary fix, my bro is letting me borrow his but it has only got half a screen as it fell off the seat of his car wen he was driving home from uni and the screen smashed.
so if neone has a broken toshiba PAS251A A with a good screen please let me know
thank you

AS I SAID LAPTOP, NO HDD, UM, HAS ALL THE BASICS (IE CHARGER AND STUFF) AND THAT IS IT
YEAH I WILL TAKE 80 FOR IT, WAS LOOKING FOR $125 but offers near that (or as close to will do), it is a p2, 366mhz, unsure on the ram and i may be able to find u a 98 disc, but u will need a serial number for it (google serals) but the latter is unsure and dependand on the fnal offer (not being a prick, but i can try to leach it from work and they will spew if they find out about software goin out the door......) u know it is sorta risk over price.
Either way the machine is great, let me know
