Before hitting the track, I need to protect this beast. It's still somewhat of a mystery why the previous engine let go, so I'm installing a new Aim video and data acquisition system to ensure this new power plant lasts.
For video, I'm using a SmartyCam HD (already use that for my other car, along with a Solo DL).
For data acquisition, my goal is to continuously monitor and record the following. Another big goal is to have bright LED alarms instantly warn me if any of the following fall outside of acceptable:
Oil pressure
Oil temperature
Air-fuel mixture via 2x 02 sensors
For track performance, I'll also record and display:
Throttle
RPM
Speed
Brake pressure
Current lap
Best lap
This system will allow me to perform comparative lap analysis, pretty awesome stuff if you're trying to improve your lap times.
Here's an example of the data that I record in my other car, although in the Camaro it will be much more comprehensive:
The Aim system I'll likely install is:
EVO4 control box with integrated GPS antenna
G-Dash display with LED alarms and RPM shift light LEDs
Datahub to expand number of inputs
KA 0 to 2K brake pressure sensor
oil temp sensor
oil pressure sensor
dual 02 sensors
