Any of you guys fitted one of theses gadgets to your X? Looks like a nice bit of kit and wanted some feed back.

I'm thinking about getting one too.

Do you have the Rockford Fosgate?
I was wondering how it will work. Obviously DVDs turn them selves off when moving, I assume the Camp2 will bypass that function?

No, I have an Alpine GPS Navigation but I'm sure the Fosgate system will work too. You just connect it to your OBD2 connector and the AUX RCA plug on the back of your Navi. I don't think the Camp will bypass the safety feature (turn off while driving). You'll probably need to bypass that in a different way. In Japan Blitz sells a system to bypass that feature.

Just bought mine from Japan

Still waiting for the Alpine set to go in before fitting it ..

 

[redmachine]

what would be the use of this system if it turned off when you are driving? isnt the idea that you can monitor boost ext., ext. while driving?

 

[gunzo]

There's a bypass mod that you can do .. mine comes with it .. and I believe it's available with other media players too ..

But anyway.. the movement thing is reference to playing DVD .. you're just using the AV input .. it's not affected ..

I've been looking at this unit as well. Since this would need to use the video in plug, for folks that didn't get the nav system from mitsu that would work fine i think. For those of us that got the factory nav system, there are only Right and Left audio inputs. How would this unit work in that case? Perhaps thats what that Blitz product does?

If so i am one happy mother f'ing camper right now

I thought if it's stock it should come like this ??
3 jacks standard for A/V input ..

Sorry .. not very familiar .. but the audio system IS factory installed :shades:
I get a choice of Alpine, Clarion, Kenwood etcetc ..

Oh as for Blitz .. its the same as the HKS .. you need the yellow video in .. the only thing that made me go for HKS is there is no external sensor source for the Blitz.. you only get OBD data .. HKS you get to have boost, temp, EGT etc optional extras

 

[flagg77]

Yup mine looks exactly like that, except the first plug on the left is totally missing. I think if i recall its a side effect of the navi's gps unit wiring. I'm hoping someone comes up with a way to by pass it. Would hate to have to yank the factory nav and replace it.

Can you plug in a wideband O2 sesor?
With the device's logging capabilty that would be necessary.

 

[gunzo]

Yes you can but it'll have to be a HKS AF unit ..

Hi Gunzo,

Probably a stupid question.... but can you still play music while using the device at the same time?

probably not .. never tried

The audio source is selected in sync with the CAMP2 video in

Hi Gunzo,

If you consider the sound of the Evo's engine, turbo spooling up, BOV, etc. to be music, then yes.

 

[TwilightZ1]

So you always drive with the CAMP2 display on and listen to music provided by 4B11T? :shades:

I am just curious if we can have the screen displaying the gauges reading while still listening to the music at the same time. It will be best of both world if that is possible.

True, but my son and wife might appreciate normal music more often then the BOV...

On my Alpine unit, I can play music from my iPod while displaying DVD movies simply by selecting the display to DVD (there is an option to select AUX too so I am guessing it is possible).

 

[Kwiq Niss]

Yeah, I wouldn't go factory nav anyway. I like the new Pioneer with voice activation, etc. I am certain it has a similar function.

 

[Gumbö]

Anyone else installed this little gizmo yet?
