mx98ranger 12-06-2007 07:37 PM

that is pretty darn cool.. makes me want one

BILLZFX4 12-06-2007 07:38 PM

They are pretty neat, I've had mine for about 6 months. It's nice to get 'real' voltage and water temp. readings, but the mpg setting just depresses me. :(

cowboy63645 12-06-2007 08:02 PM

looks pretty neat!! I wouldnt mind having one

dirtboardforlife 12-09-2007 02:45 AM

when it says that you can make codes to send your computer does that mean tuner codes?

Ace 12-09-2007 07:44 AM

i think they are referring to going on their site and uploading new features. theres no tunning to these. it just plugs into the obd2 port and gives you a digital readout of what the computer gets.

Once it's warmed up it stays right about 197.

yea I've been on xru alot! There so much info there! Your blue gauges came out real nice...did you do it yourself? I've been wanting to do it, but I've been busy. whats you sn over there?

Dusty08 12-10-2007 09:32 AM

that does look pretty cool -- I don't know that seeing my mpg is going to be good for my health... It would be neat to have that kind of information, though.

got-dirty 12-10-2007 08:08 PM

one day theyll see the light beyond the tunnel.

04 EDGE 12-11-2007 10:07 AM

well why do you guys post here?

wydopnthrtl 12-11-2007 10:42 AM

Can you guys read tranny temps with it?

Oh5Edge 12-11-2007 10:51 AM

My big question is what about the guys with bigger tires? I'd like to have my speed and mpg's accurate if I had it. Anyone know if you can fix the tire size with this thing?

Werty 12-11-2007 11:01 AM

Technically I still own the ranger...so if a problem ever comes up I know I have somewhere to ask about it

And like this thread, if I find something cool, I will always share about i with you guys
