Dash Logic
To my knowledge there is no phone number for the makers of DashLogic (Palmer Performance Products).does anyone know if this product displays A/F (Air Fuel Ratio)? I'm looking to minimize the gauges and clutter in my car.

Yes it does. It lets you pick the aftermarket wideband controller and it also has the conversion for the slope programmed for several brands. You still need to input the signal of the controller into one of the 2 physical inputs available into the dashlogic

It can display two 0 to 5 volt signals. Most widebands have 0 to 5v out.

Pardon my ignorance in this subject, but what ELSE do I need to purchase aside from the dash logic to get air/fuel ratio and boost reading?
I do know I need an O2 bung plug.
Do I also need an air/fuel sensor module and boost sensor module?
Palmer Perormance is charging $100 for the boost sensor muddle and $180 for the air/fuel sensor module (ouch!).
Do I need to buy sensor modules for the dash logic to show these readings?
If so, are there any cheaper alternatives to the Palmer sensor modules?
I already bought the dash logic itself.

You can use any wideband with a 0-5V output. $180 from palmer is actually probably the best deal around. Boost just depends on your car and what map sensor you have. If you have a map sensor that reads boost already, just plug it in. If not, get the correct map sensor and just read it through the cars computer.

Please correct me if I'm wrong though LOL!

Boost is nice to see and for trouble shooting. That being said, your map sensor should be swapped to the correct one to allow proper tuning and ecu reading of boost, and then the dashlogic just reads that. Just put the correct map sensor in your car and have the tune adjusted for it as part of the blower install.

Actually Palmer Performance only has the 4.2 version of the PLX A/F Ratio sensor module. I ended up buying the latest version (4.9) for $20 CHEAPER than the older model on Palmer's site by going directly to the PLX website. Really excited to get all this hardware and software installed and running!

I believe the Dash Logic can only support 2 sensor modules at a time. Aside from the Necessary A/F Ratio, I'd like to know the estimated HP and TQ.
I might go with a boost sensor module instead, but not sure which one of those 2 in addition to the much needed A/F Ratio sensor module yet.
If Dash Logic could support 3 modules at a time, I'd definitely get all 3.

You don't need a boost sensor module. 2012 can use a zr1 sensor. Just replace the factory map sensor, have the tune setup for a zr1 map, and then you can read boost through the dashlogic. No need to use a 0-5V in for boost. Use it for fuel pressure or something else.

Perfect! That's exactly what I'll do then. Thanks a 1,000,000 Unreal!

Good luck trying to get a hold of Palmer performance, emailed a week ago tried to place order from west coast corvette, they called and emailed last week ....no answer, I'm leaving for California next week and would have loved to see what my tune did on my Z, guess not, horrible customer service,,, oh wait, no customer support, if anybody can get me one overnight shipped to az sat or by Monday let me know, just ridiculous,, thx.

Drive over and grab mine, and I'll buy a new one. Seriously. In fact I got 2 of the, but they wouldn't like me selling the prototype one I have. They always respond to me, so don't know what to say about that.
