This video is perfect timing, I am about to install the dash on the terminator x. I laughed at your comment hoping that there's a 7" dash in the box. Because the first one I received was missing the dash. I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of the build 👍
I just got my dash and update is still a problem with these things. I’m glad you said keep trying thumb drives I’ve been through 3 with no avail yet. I’ll try the sd version next.
Hi there. Just want to mention that there must be some kind of boot up information on the USB that comes with the dash. I could not get any of my popular USB flash drive along with the correct dash software to activate a boot up for the software to load onto the dash. Just for shits and giggles, I tried loading the files onto the USB that came with the dash and the update proceeded just as the Holley instruction indicated. So there you go. And yes Holley, this is not well done on the software update issue in this dash.
Hey, so I’m trying to use this with a terminator x and the tec at Holley just told me it can’t be used with terminator x for tuning... also attempting to power it up and I’m just getting a flashing white screen. TEC support at Holley was near no help other than telling me to send the brand new unit back. He also told me I would need to buy the 3.5 so I could tune it and would only be able to use the 7” for gauges. Didn’t make much sense to me and here the car sits dead in the water. Anyone had similar problems or know what’s going on?
Lots of good content and thanks for the tip about the firmware, but honestly with the view and your clicking all over the place... no I couldn’t really see what you were doing.
you can buy the standalone version (i used it with a Carb converted LS) And latter upgrade if you buy the Terminator... which is why im here bc i cant get the firmware updated😂 thanks in advance GRG.
Holley is a complete and total shit show, if you are spending 800, 1200, or 2000 on a dash, issues like this are not acceptable. Holley's website, their instructions, and their non existent support is a joke. These dashboards have had this USB issue for many years and they refuse to fix it. I spent hours trying to update my dash only having to find a solution by using web searches.
For future information 93 up Camero and firebird have a 3 wire coolant temp sensor 1 gage 1 ecu 1 ground.

Once you get past the firmware issue everything went great.
@@GoatRopeGarage thanks for that it has me a bit apprehensive when I was watching. I'm not extremely computer savvy so well see what happens lol

The glare in your video on that screen is really bad. I’m wondering if we’re driving around on sunny days if you experienced similar glare
Is it a formatting issue? You can reformat zip drives to different types of NTFS.
Thanks for the reviewcaro, does this do all the logging like the 3.5 screen that comes with the terminator? can you add fuel level to this
Is there a way to display a fuel level guage on the term x maxx? I know that it typically uses a thermistor but I don't see that option on my xmaxx

So what do you prefer HP Tuners or Holley terminator x?
Too different to really compare, really depends on the platform
So maybe dumb question but you can do all your tuning and logging from the screen and don’t have to use the laptop anymore ?
You can log, but you can't tune for the Terminator with this unit, not sure why as you can for the other ECUs Holley offers.
Goat Rope Garage that sucks! but it’s still awesome lol good with the bad I guess.
I have not done it yet but the 6.93" dash says it will tune with it.
@@billolson9516 not in the Terminator, it will on the dominator and EFI

How has this dash been after 9 months? I’m looking at getting one for my terminator x. Wondered how well the gps speed works
Been great, and out of the GPS units I have used it grabs a signal the quickest. The screen is one of the better pieces they make.
So why did you get this instead of the 6.93" pro dash?
Ok, so i just looked it up and i see it has a $300 price difference.
Yeah, and I'm not sure there is any benefit over the wide one
Fantastically informative. Cheers from Florida. Sub'd
Pitter patter, let's get at her
Do you need a Holley ecu to run this?
They make a standalone version
