Incorporating Rev into a swapped civic
hey guys
just heard about this iphone app and i wanted to know how i can incorporate this into my civic
i have a b20b into my 99 civic so i wanted to know if i would need a new wiring harness (or would i have to somehow manipulate my harness now) to make it work with rev
rev is basically a gauge program for the iphone it works with obdII unfortunately a b20b is obdI and i needed a wiring harness for the conversion
also sorry if this is on google i LIGHTLY searched on this

So you want to be able toconnect to your ecu to make some gauges work on your iphone?
I don't see the point. lol
Heard about a program for the gameboy advance to connect to your ecu and allowed you to tune your ecu (or something like that), but that was a few years back.

here is what it does
The $40 (USD) app uses the iPhone's built-in accelerometer and GPS to provide a variety of data including instant and average fuel economy, acceleration, and commute times. Owners can either display this information instantly to get real time feedback or record it for later analysis.
While that's nice, Rev's real party piece is its advanced OBDII functionality. Accessed with the use of an aftermarket OBDII port connector, the Rev program offers sleek diagnostic tools and the ability to clear annoying "Check Engine" lights. Among the other features are real-time statistics concerning fuel pressure, throttle position, air intake temperatures, boost, and intake manifold pressure.
Although certain features sound mind numbingly dull, the app does have its benefits so you might want to check out free "Lite" version to get a better understanding of its
kind of neat... But too much hassle to install if you ask me...
