Default OBD2 data recording

Hi,
Question 1 :

I would like record engine data via OBD2 connector.
Who know how to do ?
With what system ?

Question 2 :
for this car, what is the best tires for track use ? (235x35x19)
Toyo 888 or Michelin Pilot Sport Cup ?

Many thanks for all infos.

Claude

MOTORSPORT DEVELOPMENTS SELL THEM, BRILIANT BIT OF KIT GIVE THEM A BELL. AND ALSO I THINK 888S WOUL BE A GOOD CHOICE BUT THAT ALL DEPENDS ON YOUR BUDGET.

That's a bit of an optimistic graph there to be honest. The standard fuel system maxes out at around 350bhp.

Just as a update just had a look at one of these it records 24 hours worth of info they are £75 + vat on the van but sometimes on special cheaper

also there is one on ebay at the moment might be worth a bid

I think this graph is correct.
Black line is the power record with only Mongoose exhaust and IC Airtec : 299 hp.
Red line is the power record with ECU remaping, just 2 hours after.
Same car, same day, same temp, same conditions.
Several recording with this bench show stock Focus RS are around 290/305 hp, that's right measure.

Anyway, 370 hp more or less, I am very happy with my car, and it's terrific on the track.
And that is my goal.

Regards.
Claude
