What monitors are available?

UNBROKEN · Jan 1, 2015

I plan to add something but the CTS is huge and hideous. Is there anything smaller?
I need to keep the top corners of the dash open because that space will be used for speaker pods. I'd like to find something small enough to mount above the rearview mirror if possible.
What's out there that smaller than the CTS?

Minimaxx or maybe an Android / Apple device with App and bluetooth obd2 adapter.

Bullydog watchdog then. Same display as a MiniMaxx and supposedly supports 2015s. Only around $300.

Hopefully it monitors about the same data as a mini max.

I have yet to be really impressed with any of the monitors that are available. None of them do everything.

Not bad on the price.

I'm going to guess the support for that monitor is going to blow since the merger. Probably only basic PID support for the 15's.

Probably lol. The x4 is a waist of time for any of that

Best bet is probably an APP that allows you to add manufacturer specific PIDs.

if anyone uses the bullydog watch dog as a monitor, they're better off punching themselves in the face. the edge cts is by far the best available. if that doesn't work, well, don't use a monitor.

Have you used that by chance? I've been curious how it works but have never known anybody that's used it, I could ask about it

Someone had a screen shot of one in another thread and it didnt look half bad on what the possibilities were.

I can't get ahold of anyone at drewtech about adding the unlock on the 6.7s for the full UDS data.

Maybe ole laces out will chime in on how the NDash is working for spartan.

Someone send me a CTS to try out

I have a dashdaq and it shows everything on the 6.7s. I sold my CTS because it would only show me boost egt and coolant temps. I am actually selling the dashdaq now though because Im getting a mini maxx in on a trade so i figured I might as well use it. I really recommend the dashdaq though and drewtech still supports it if you call them.

I should have specified I'm not interested in any phone apps or similar. I'm looking for a permanently mounted option. I mainly just wanna watch EGT...anything else would just be something to play with.
I may just add a stand alone gauge somewhere.
