Is there a way i can datalog with a superchip setup?

[OrangeMustangGt]

I'm finally getting some money together so that i can buy software, burner, and a laptop so i can edit the tune on my superchip.

I was thinking about how i am going to do it, and have a few questions.


I currently have an AEM wideband gauge type in my car, but it doesn't have any logging capabilities....however it DOES have a 0-5v output for an ext. logger.

Is there any sort of Hardware for a laptop, or a standalone data logger that i can use similar to a tweecer r/t?


Lastly(maby should have been firstly), do i really even need to log to effectively tune my car?

Hey Kyle

Don't know about all except the last part.

NO, you don't need datalogging to tune.

I guess one way to describe tuning would be making changes to effect the outcome of performance.

You make a change and see if it goes + or -

Datalogging gives one a baseline to compare to after tuning changes and the hard data to verify if those changes were in the + or - direction.

From my experience with self tuning, the more data you have at your disposal the better and more easy the job becomes.

I would rather tune with hard data than with out it myself.
