    Default Imperial pids for BBL?

    I looked around and didn't see anything on this.

    When setting up the PID selection to load into my v2 the temps, speeds, ect are all metric.

    How do I get imperial PIDs into the list to use?

    1) Open up the V8 Scan and Tune software,
    2) Click on BBL,
    3) Select the PIDs you want logged on your controller,
    4) Once you have all your PIDs selected you can right click on them and click properties,
    5) You should see a 'custom' section,
    6) Select the imperial unit you want the PID to be displayed and logged as
    7) FYI: You can toggle between metric and custom by pressing 'enter' on your V2 unit

    Good luck

    When I do that with mine, it won't allow me to change it to imperial...not sure what's going on. Anybody have any ideas? Haven't tried toggling on my V2 yet. Can someone paste a copy of the default LBZ pid descriptions on here so I can get them? I was messing with some stuff I shouldn't have, enough said lol. Thanks.

    Have the same issue with mine...doesn't give me any options in the drop down box for metric/imperial selection. Am I missing something?

    Same thing going on for me. I have not tried it on the new build 58 till now. It did work for me for sure in build 55. Looks like a bug in build 88 maybe. Unless others have no issue in build 88.

    I'm not sure but it looks like the V8 'Options.txt' file is not looking at the 'EFILive.ini' file for the alternate (Imperial) measurements. If they were in the 'Options.txt' file from an earlier version they are still there but nothing new can be added. I haven't tried loggng to see if the PIDs values show up in Imperial or Metric. Will give it a try when I get a chance.

    Just hooked up V2 to car and PIDs in Imperial as they are in my 'Options.txt' file.

    Yes my current options.txt file has some in Imperial and is fine there. Just adding new PIDs or even trying to change current PIDs back to Metric if Imperial or vice a versa no longer exist.
