R&D machines and my yellow toolbox have finially moved!

Might end up cheaper now that the shop rental is 50% less than what was paid for before

That is what you get for $1700/month here in Shanghai High Tech industrial park. You get a nice Shoe-Box-Size room lolll Old pic from last week below... its all done now I'm being told (220V/380V, new paint job, doors, new locks, running hot water, small hvac unit, etc)

Unwrapping and switching ON those two machines this coming Saturday morning!!!

Thank you.

Saw a bunch of images. Is there a finished product picture yet? Will there be a video of this working?

Man, if I take vids of this thing in my dash you will simply catch a heart attack in your chest. As in "Porsche 986.1 retrofit 2012"

We'll give that a wait I think

First-thing-First; got to order a quality coffee machine and some fine grains for that Mega Factory to power up this Saturday!

Yes!! And about MOST integration?

Please sign me up for one of these

I've got the 2004 Boxster S special edition... It has the MOST amp and Bose speakers, and if this unit doesn't support it, I believe there are converters that will adapt after market head units to the MOST amp. Would be amazing to directly integrate tho. I've seen others ask for this but haven't seen the final answer. Thanks!



Also will share this : https://www.macchina.cc

I supported their kickstarter earlier this year and recently received the unit along with Smith's " The Car Hacker's Handbook". Another nifty hacker/maker method to obtaining OBDII data and modifying it, ie alternate tunes, etc.

Astonished

Just stumbled on this thread, I am astounded as to the genius of this person!

Very interested in seeing this in your 1987 2.5 Boxster all installed and working.

Silly question I know, just remember I am a complete novice when it comes to "just installing" stuff in cars.

Is the finished unit going to be PlugnPlay? How difficult will it be to install?

Amazing stuff Fred, A M A Z I N G!
very impressed with your genius!

Fred hasn't posted on here since November of last year. I don't think it likely we will see this product to market.

I’ve been thinking the same for the past few months. Maybe it has something to do with water intrusion affecting his car’s electronics and lost interest. Actually, I’m hoping that’s all it is.

Have patience, that is what I learned in the last months (was just lucky and determined to be back).
Let's give him the time he might need.
