Have been using one for a while now and it works on my 2003 MK4, using it with an Android app called OBDscan to monitor MAF G/S and fuel trims. Does have a bit of lag but readings are the same as VCDS and a lot more accurate than Torque.

Handy to have in the car but wouldn't rely on it for logging.

Works on mk4, but not early ones, only ecu it works with is the me7.5 which is AUM onwards, but it won't work with AGU as that uses the 3.8 ecu.
