Maybe I had this questions posted in the wrong section so here it goes again.

Is it possible to get a raw pulse count (or signal) off the factory VSS sensor (i.e. how many teeth it has picked up since a stop)??

Working on a function to arrive at feet traveled, based off of the factory VSS sensor (tire circ. and gear incl.).

I currently have a calc.pid now that gives me driveshaft rpm based from the vss. With this, I should be able to get a distance traveled but am having problems. If could get a raw value or count on the sensor, it would help out a ton.

Any help would be appreciated.

How did you make a custom pid? i'm trying to do something simialar to that but i'm trying to figure out how to do a instant fuel econ. and a custom one to get actual boost which would be turbo boost minus baro. any suggestions?

Did the boost one a while ago (my first calc pid actually ;))

Edit the calc_pids.txt in the My Documents\V7.5\User Configuration\
If its not there add it.

Does like you said. KPA - BARO and then convert to PSI

Thanx, for the help. I've gone on to make many more helpful calc.pid's
