Transcript
PSP can show your car's gauges, and then you can play Midnight Club. So how do you set this up? One, you need a PSP that's been home brewed. And then two, you need the flock PSP ROM. And three, you need a flock gauge. The gauge reads from OBD2 or independent sensors, so it works with any car, and this sends the data to the PSP. Then you need to connect the PSP to the gauge's Wi Fi and launch the PSP rom. Comment PSP for the instructions and a link to download.
