I was thinking about this recently for another project. I wonder if there's
a way to setup the MS to feed a minimal stream of data back to the factory
PCM so all the gauges will work. When I bring a vehicle in for an emissions
test, they take a snapshot of the computer through the OBDII port. If I were
to use the MS to run the motor and piggyback the stock electronics on top of
everything I could (in theory) run whatever I wanted and still pass as long
as no codes were set.
