ScanGauge, who has them?
 

okay so just random thought...i have been looking at a scangauge for a while and i was wondering how do you all like them and if you have them where do you have them mounted in your truck.

Re: ScanGauge, who has them?
 

I have one and i love it, its very nice to be able to moniter trans temps and such. I fabbed up a custom mount to mount it near the pillar.

Just peeking in on this thread and wonder how much technical wiring is neede to supply all of the functions? Dave

Re: ScanGauge, who has them?
 

I had mine mounted using velcro on the column:

it takes 1 second to wire up as it is plugged directly into your OBDII port under your dash, there is no actually splicing of wires or anything of that sort

Re: ScanGauge, who has them?
 

I love mine. I mounted it with velcro on my mirror. The wire is the perfect length to mount it there.

have one...barely use it anymore though, just glance at it for MPGs on occasion. Nice for getting CEL codes though.

Re: ScanGauge, who has them?
 

I think its a waste of money. If I need obd2 information I use my laptop and AEM logging software.

Re: ScanGauge, who has them?
 

That costs a lot more than a scanguage though doesn't it? Almost 10x as much...

Re: ScanGauge, who has them?
 

thats kind of what i was thinking. plus who wants a damn laptop taking up the passenger seat so you can see your trans temp while climbing a sand dune? lol ill stick with my scangauge. ha ha

Re: ScanGauge, who has them?
 

I actually never use it for MPG that would just make me said lol.

Use mine constantly every time I drive. Trans Temp, Water Temp, MPH. For us guys that have Larger then stock tires and dont feel like shelling out the money for a Tuner its great to have a check up on what my actual MPH are lol

Re: ScanGauge, who has them?
 

Ditto, trans temp and Water all at the same time

Re: ScanGauge, who has them?
 

The laptop will log faster than your eye can ever read, and you can record more than you could see. Not to mention you can compare graphs in excel or other software. Great for comparing ignition timing vs wheel torque to determine if an alcohol tune is actually advanced beyond maximum brake torque. I get AEM software for free... considering I am an AEM licensed tuner for all of their aftermarket engine management hardware and software. You can also pin extra sensors that don't come on the stock engine management into the factory engine management to log them as well... for example afr.. knock... ect..

Re: ScanGauge, who has them?
 

thats exactly what i use mine for.
