    Not sure if this is in the right place or not?

    Anyway, i was looking at the dash command app earlier, a friend is using it on his e46.

    Is any body familiar with this or something similar and will it be compatible with an R53?

    Torque on android is brilliant. I've got an old phone hinged under the toggle switches I use with an OBD reader. Gives me boost, IATs, whatever I want. Gauges can be set to flash at a certain level - my IAT one flashes at 50 degrees for example.

    Also clears fault codes

    Feet were made to fit car pedals. If we were meant to walk, we'd have pogo sticks for legs

    It hinges out of the way, so when it's not being used it can't be seen.

    Also have Navmii on it, so my car also has built-in satnav

    I like torque on android. For some reason dash command wouldn't connect to the adapter
