Datalogging Software?

I'm looking to get some datalogging software for my 2010 C63 and was wondering what recommendations anyone has.

Thanks in advance.

Call OE Tuning or Speedriven. The latter is out of state, but can still help.

It really all depends on what you want to log/monitor.

I use software/hardware by AutoEnginuity. Great for basic stuff when I'm at the track or on the dyno.

Google it and see if it meets your requirements.

I'm really only looking to monitor the key engine vitals affected through tuning, i.e., timing, AFR, load, knock, temp, etc. Based on the website overview it looks like the AutoEnginuity you suggested is perfect. Thank you!

Just checked the AutoEnginuity website. That looks like a great product.

Have you ever performed the speed tests (e.g., 1/4 mile or 1/8 mile, or 60') while you were at the track to compare the accuracy of the logging device to the actual track measurements?

I recommend the Dashdaq/Zeitronix combo.... it will enable you to log data at a much faster sample rate than our snail-speed ECUs can

All you need is the cable and software (and of course a laptop or netbook) to scan and log OBDII parameters. If you want access to more data, you'll need the M-B specific add-on.

I only know of one from them. It has their name on it. It can store two tunes on it, but you can move your tunes around from your computer to this programmer. Also, apparently u can log data with it as well, but I think you need some software and I'm still trying to find out what what that is.
