Grrrrr, even if you were using the OEM ECU it wouldn't use all it's functions.....as I have just discovered!

The bloody thing has a list of manufacturers that it supports and guess what? Mazda aint one of 'em! It does work on the HONDA setting but a few of the displays show no value and of course they're the ones that I most wanted to see.

Boost - NO, Battery - NO, Voltage - NO, Injector Duty Cycle - NO, etc, etc. It does however show Speed(I have a speedo, thanks!), Tacho(again, I have a tacho and fitted a shift light but thanks!), Ign Advance, Intake Temps(Down to 21 C this morning so the intercoolers workin'), Water Temp (you get the idea.....)

Biggest annoyance outta this is the fact it was ordered from E-bay and the fool that sold it to me said it would function 100% on the SE(well Mazdaspeed Miata anyhow). Hopefully he can help out or let me send it back.
