Pretty fun toy, tracks EGT, Boost/vacuum, Battery voltage, Coolant Temp, Air intake Temp, Throttle body readings, Fault code readings, 0-60 Time, True speed, RPM shift.

I figured since i have a tuned car, it would behoove me to know what's going on in with the engine. And its ODBII so no need to mess with boost taps.

Saw these before but thought they were expensive, $364. P3CARS (http://www.p3cars.com/mk6/)

I bought an adapter for £30 and get the same info on my phone using the torque app (http://torque-bhp.com/).

Nicely integrated though and looks nice  :smiley:
