4th Gen + Andriod Double Din + Torque Pro + Bluetooth OBD2 = Live Guages in Dash

I'm posting this in response to a topic that was asked about the idea of it being possible, and well yeah it is because i've had this thing in my car since 2013.

I didn't want to revive A dead topic if you really want to know why I did it like this, and this way if you have questions you can ask.
FYI this was a quick, and dirty setup

P.S cut to the end of the video to see the screen in question.

Just how usable is that? In my experience, the 4th gen ECU is too slow to be able to give "live" readings through the OBDII port.

The OBDII port might be slow im not sure if its too slow for reading but the consult port can definitely support live readings, that would be the only way it would work honestly. When i have my laptop hooked up to nistune i always have the live feed up.

I've actually seen this done using Raspberry Pi and a program on it. Also linux/android based. It's called "Car Pi" I believe. For those who don't know what Raspberry Pi is, it's basically a DIY/hobby mini computer that allows you to do many things with it. Open source.
