Instant fuel economy in the driver information center
Greetings.
I will be using my ZL1 as a daily commuter to work when the weather is nice. To that end, I intend to hypermile the living daylights out of it, partly because 100 octane gasoline is ridiculously expensive in Europe, and partly because I particularly enjoy the challenge of hypermiling a gas guzzling V8. It's a perverse hobby of mine. To hypermile effectively, I require real time telemetry. Unfortunately the ZL1 does not provide it (resetting the average fuel economy is not practical in that context). To that end, I did some "digging" and found this video: 2010 Camaro with Instant Fuel Economy Added to DIC this video appears to depict a custom firmware running, rather than a "Dashcontrol" OBD-II style module (although there is no definitive evidence to the contrary).
