I would really love to have a dashboard with some stats like - RPM - Coolant Temp - Horsepower (if possible) - Intake Air pressure - Intake Air Temp This would be a great option to get an overview of your car while driving.
And maybe some option to gage 0-100km/h times and so on.
This would be some really nice features in my eyes.

ThirstyDE, I use tools like TorquPro for that sort of output,
However on my car under live data I already have
Engine Speed - guessing this is rpm Coolant temperature - under Control Unit 17 Dashboard Ambient air pressure Intake air temperature
They defo dont have 0 - anything times and again from my perspective there are other tools like Torque Pro that do this job well and I would personally rather they do more stuff on the car side rather than replication a tool that is already out there.

Yeah i know that a lot of other apps support these features but i couldn't connect with the apps i tested. I thought the OBDeleven dongle is only for the OBDeleven app an not for other apps. Can you show me how to connect to torque pro with obd dongle?

Sorry the OBDEleven dongle only supports OBD11, You just have to buy a ELM327 Dongle (which supports many different apps) and then the Torque Pro.
Personally I use OBD11 When working on the car and for the odd occasion i need a graph to check on outputs but i use Torque for driving data as it gives you a virtual dashboard, and if you have a spare tablet looks very cool.

- Horsepower (if possible) You will need things like vehicle and occupant weight, current gear ratio (if not using a close 1:1), tire diameter, and your car's frontal drag coefficient. I'm busy trying to build a dyno graph for my DSG GTI using logs taken with VCDS using a 4th gear pull (as close to 1:1 as I can get). I'd then build the graph in Excel. I'm getting mixed results for far, but I think it might be an error in my formula as I use "engine torque" from VCDS, but the car doesn't know that it is modified with a Eurodyne tune. The point I'm making is that there is a lot that goes into making a horsepower guage (where all the extremal factors to the engine are concerned).
