I don't trust Amazon reviews anymore... but you guys seem decent


Also... I was looking at some gauges and realizing that all the nice ones... aeroforce etc are hella expensive... cheaper good options? I don't need crazy fancy. just boost and KR maybe etc.

You guys ate great.

I have a bluedriver and it works great for the newer cars that I scan, but in my '97 GTP it really just comes up with ECU codes. It does work well, though.

Ah, thanks cody, helpful to know

Get your self a Tech 2 if you want a good scanner. Got a knock off one on Ali Express. Reads all your codes, does live data display and snapshots. Also can bleed your brakes for you and a couple other things. Best tool I have got. Rrally handy when diagnosing problems

Any other genric scanner will give you live data for some things and read ecu codes. Not much else for the 50 or less price range.

I use the torque app and a Bluetooth obd 2 adaptor from amazon, make sure you get one that's compatible with gm protocol or whatever it's called.
