C5s and laptop computers???
Does anyone know if it is possible to connect a laptop computer into the cars computer system and monitor/log the various systems realtime or to even make temporary mods to the vehicles performance?
I would assume that an interface cable/device would be necessary and some sort or terminal program running on the computer. If companies like Top Down Tech. can play with the signals to operate the windows etc. I would think this has to be possible.

HI there,
The new Tech3 that will be coming out, will be a Tablet sized laptop.
Arrival is still unknown, however, this will also be made by Hewlett Packard, as is our Tech2 factory scan tool.
Besttoyou, c4c5 :chevy

Autotap does exactly what you want to do, and with a very nice user interface and logging options. It is a must for monitoring exactly what is going on with your car, and lets you determine the changes you should make with a programmer such as LS1-Edit.
Drop me an email if you want a great price on Autotap and we always have them in stock and ready to ship.
