need to tune your car? use your GAMEBOY!!

[sLoWnStEaDy]

Yup, you heard it right, our friend's at Gizmodo talked with TurboXS who have made a revolutionary new gadget that transforms you average Ninentdo Gameboy Advance into a super-dooper, programmable, upgradeable, automotive performance tool for tuning, data loggin and diagnostics (what a mouthful!)!

Using TurboXS' TXS DTEC seems fairly simple. Looks like it's just a matter of plugging it into your Gameboy Advance. The preloaded software then allows you to tune your care by providing a Boost Gauge, Exhaust Gas Temperature Gauge, Air Temperature Gauge and Tachometer. Apparently, future plug-n-play sensors will allow everything from Knock Indication to Vehicle Acceleration (i.e. G-Force)!
