I haven't fooled with the Open SID in a long time, but anything you can monitor with a Tech 2 can be shown on the SID. You program the parameters you want to monitor and download the software into your Trionic computer. The SID is just a dumb display. All the work is done in the Trionic computer. I think I used to do knock and misfires by cylinder, but there are a lot of other things you can monitor that don't appear on the Tech 2. You are limited by the SID display space as to what can see at one time, but you can scroll through a list.
As I recall, there was an option to do realtime monitoring of values on your PC running the TrionicTuning software while driving, but you have to be careful to not drive into the back of another car or get stopped by the police while you are doing it.
