Scangauge

How many members own a Scangauge and how useful do you find it to be?

I have the older version. It can be mounted anywhere you wish to mount it via velcro strips. I use it to monitor my gas mileage (Miles to go, miles traveled, gas used, gas remaining, time traveled, time left on tank, etc.). I have started monitoring the TPS sensor to improve my mileage (currently at 23MPG for the tank). It has a lot of funtions that I don't even use. I can see my Ignition Timing change as my foot gets heavier and lighter. The website is pretty self explanatory. I now wonder if they have some sort of a exchange program so I can get the newer one.

Here's a few pics of mine.

What the heck? They must have JUST updated the site, because I was there two weeks ago. Looks like it might be worth waiting for the USB version in August.

That new one really makes me want to get rid of my old one for the more current model.

I e-mailed scanguage to see if they would offer any type of upgrade deal but I didn't get any response yet. The new one sure is nice. Here's mine.
