Though about this as well but I think this is subject for the next release.

I might want to use it with sensors for
- speed
- RPM
- cooling system temperature
- oil system temperature
- oil pressure sensor
- supercharger pressure sensor
- inside temperature
- outside temperature
- .... ?
I'd recommend you to have a look at the Phidgets website to find out what stock sensors you can use for doing all that.
I'm not sure whether they have decent pressure sensors, but eventually all you need is some sensor that has a analog output to connect it to the interface kit.
