What's out there for logging PCM information from a LSx computer? Many years ago I used to use Datamaster I believe when I had an LT1 computer, but now with the 24x conversion I don't know what my options are without breaking the bank. Buying an entire tuning suite to record speed/rpm/etc. during a run is not an option.

Any suggestions as to what's best? I was under the (probably false) impression that most devices didn't record the info for later playback. I'm hoping for something that uses a usb or bluetooth interface so I don't have 25 feet of cable with 2 different adapter boxes strung across my passenger compartment.

Honestly I don't have any recommendations.
What are you trying to accomplish?
Logging is one thing - but if you can't change the tune, it doesn't do much good.
Have you considered a used HPtuners setup? Should be able to find one with some credits left for $200-250.2000 Formula

Right now I just want to see basic things like exactly what rpm I'm shifting at, for instance. I shift higher than the factory tach can read, and I want to figure out where to set my shift light to get the exact shift rpm I want. Also want to see what RPM I drop down to between shifts, stuff like that.
If I could find a used HP Tuners setup with credits and all the necessary hardware for that price, I'd consider it.Last edited by birdie2000; August 13th, 2013, 04:22 PM.

It would be perfect for that. Go download the trial of PCM scan and check it out.

Ordered an ELM327 Mini bluetooth adapter. For less than $15 I won't be too heartbroken if it doesn't work out.
