I've no idea who's made that mate but I very much doubt it was Simon.
If I hadn't just sold mine on Sunday night i'd have taken some photo's of it but mine looked really well made, nothing like that mate.

Never seen one like that before.

I had a secs and it was nothing like that.

I now have the new version from www.cosworthenginemonitor.co.uk and it's by far the best unit I've had.

I had the 1st one Simon did for his mate Nick which had the nice machined face plate. it now resides in a rather pristine black 2wd saff.

That is one nasty copy.

Who remembers the 670 bhp black 4x4 saff with the Norris designs engine?

Hi guys, Hope this is seen as advice and not a for sale post.

The monitor in the pic is a SECS monitor but i believe that it is one of the first and probably one of the development versions. The name on the chip is one of the guys that used to be in our local group and he probably had it in his car on test.

As far as im aware nobody baring Simon Johnson has the wiring diagram for this. It seems this monitor is no good to man nor beast im afraid.

Hope this helps.
