IMHO if you are going to spend that much money i would hold off and wait for the spartan Phalanx to come out. that thing is supposed to blow any other tuner/gauge setup out of the water.

I wouldn't do that for a couple of reasons:

1. It is going to be new technology(with regard to this use, not new in general just for this application) and given on how they fared with something that didn't have new technology(livewire), I don't know if I would trust something like that until other people were guinea pigs for awhile.

2. Bluetooth will not pick up all sensors, so inherently it cannot do all that the DashDAQ can do, because you cannot monitor all the sensors with bluetooth. At this time, it just cannot handle the data stream well enough.

The neatest thing about it is also it's weakest link. I think it's more like shift-on-the-fly, a novelty.
