I'm thinking about data loggers. I foud this USB data logger

It looks pretty cool. 8 channels of input would be plenty to datalog things like, CHT, Oil Temp, Intake Air Temp, Fuel Temp, Acceleration, EGT, Voltage, etc.

I'm curious what other people think of this setup.

it might end up being a lot of work to make such an open environment really applicable to engine monitoring. the data visualation software doesn't look particularly slick. scaling sensor output voltage to create meaningful ranges of input for the box might also be problematic. hard to argue with the price, though!

uhm, it's got USB, right? just make your own "visualation software" !!!
that stuff is pretty simple. in fact, the whole device is pretty simple ...
