You're more than welcome to copy anything you want...well almost anything. I won't share the code, at least for now - it's so convoluted and weird it's downright embarrassing. So bad it probably wouldn't do anyone any good anyhow.
Everything but the TIT is working (still awaiting the probe). Got the temp sensors mounted in the car. Like everything on this project though, nothing goes easy. Each temperature sensor has it's own unique ID. The typical way to get the temps is to just read the values in ID order. Of course I had none of the sensors attached to the proper item it was to monitor, so it was back to the code to adjust the read order. It was pretty painless to figure out which was which by just using a small butane torch on each sensor and then watching the readout to figure out which it belonged to.
I took a drive to test the system and I'm quite happy with the way it's turned out...very stable, quite responsive and interesting to watch the gauges under various conditions.
The main complaint I have is that if you lose the connection, it won't reconnect right away. In actual use, this won't be a problem, but in troubleshooting mode, it's kind of a pain.
Here is the intake sensor mounting.
