IC3YG4M3Rs MR2

[IC3YG4M3R]

Digital Multigauge and A/F Wideband

I'm currently in test phase for this with a company in AUS but ill post a link later to the company once i can confirm that this is decent. I'd hate to recommend something to the club if its just going to crap itself out on me after a months use

This thing will display up to 6 readouts at a time including Speed, Tacho, AFR, Fuel Pressure, Oil Temp, Oil Pressure, Water Temp, Boost, EGT, Volts and Exhaust Gas Temp. It can also be switched between multiple saved layouts.
Comes with all Sensors for all readouts and are custom length to fit SW20 and AW11 - Currently not yet sorted for MR-S yet.
The above is just a general overview and i'd be typing for days if i listed all the functions it had. Feel free to PM me with questions and anything i don't know i can ask.

Interesting. Is it simply a gauge display or does it have some logic & control functions?

[Gleshlich]

I'm really interested in something like this. Any compatibility with aftermarket ECUS so that we get readings for timing MAP TPS etc.?

Not sure what EMS your running but most have an interface to bring data onto display. My MS EMS will connect with a tablet or phone running android through cable, Bluetooth or Wifi. My plans are to install a 7" head unit and have selected gauges displayed on dash. Waiting to find something intelligent enough where I can use it to tune as well.

If trying to use the unit shown above I doubt if it will allow sensors to be run into EMS and this display unless it has a CAN bus arrangement.

I've got a MS2. I've been looking into getting a tablet with a Bluetooth dongle however my ecu doesn't have senders for oil pressure and temp as well as fuel pressure. Would it be as simple as wiring these into the ecu?

Its only a multiple gauge display on a single screen.
Do you have an example of what you mean by logic? The gauge is like a little computer as it has firmware to operate. It has a built in warning system that you can setup with warning alarms for each sensor so that you wont have to keep an eye on it and it'll just warn you when there is issues.
It doesn't have control, Its just a small style digital multi gauge. You cant control boost or anything through it.

It can be connected to aftermarket ECUs for your sensor readouts but it wont read your timings, map, tps, etc as it isnt a digital dash. Just displays sensors readouts.
Its purely a digital multi gauge, saves you having multiple gauges placed throughout your cabin

Ahh I see.

Would be interested in hownyou go about mounting and all.

Best to wire into MS2 so all data in one location especially when wanting to data log runs. It can also be used for protection in the event something goes wrong. I've got my readout displayed onto tablet which is located between ash tray and stereo. Not ideal as it gets a fair amount of glare off the t-top glass but space is an issue with our cars. Experimented with a Heads Up display but this was hard to get decent picture on screen. Ultimate plan is to run a double din stereo HU which can have a USB input for Shadow Dash display. Can use BT or even Wifi but prefer a cable connection.

Logic control is something like alarm parameters and action if it exceeds a pre-determined condition. For example, if the oil pressure drops can it output a trigger to cut fuel?

I could be quite interested too. Do you have any indications of the size of the unit at all?

You would have to install the sensors on the engine first. Fuel pressure is relatively straight forward, get a T fitting that fits between the rail and the fuel pressure regulator, and attach the fuel pressure sensor to that. Oil pressure is a similar process (usually off the sensor for the oil pressure light on the dash). Oil temp requires some drilling/welding of the sump to install the temp sensor.

Fuel pressure is only really useful for highly tuned NA's or boosted engines, mainly because the tuner can keep an eye on it during tuning because once it's set, it doesn't need to be fiddled with. Oil pressure is good to keep an eye on (for engine blowing up purposes ). Oil temp, weeeell, some people like knowing, others don't. I'm in the latter category.

[Benckj]

Any additional data can be useful depending on your requirements and engine mods. I'd be more interested in how the wideband O2 will work as these require a separate controller that costs as much if not more than the sensor. If this unit can process the O2 data and provide a heater supply I'd be impressed. I don't know of any EMS standalones that provide that function.

[Malcolm]

there are a few EMS's that can control widebands, first one that comes to mind is the Motec "hundred series" (oldish ones) but I'm sure there are more. Generally it just adds a lot of cost to an ECU for a feature that many people won't use, so it makes more sense to have it as a standalone unit. That also means you're not tied to one particular type of wideband (e.g. Bosch, NTK).

I am surprised that it has wideband lambda input. Looks like an interesting unit, maybe a bit overly bulky for the size of the screen but if it's a bit of a DIY job with lots of through-hole components etc it's probably not surprising. I've been tinkering away at a similar thing for my car, except mine is way more low-tech

Should hopefully run my setup with ease
