Whats aluminum in our engines?... they're iron head/bock. I know the lim is aluminum but yeah...Quote:

They have an adapter so it can do oil pressure. I'm the same, I like to see volts and temp all the time.Quote:

It was :O
dont you have to scan through all the other things a aeroforce does to see each item it scans? volts and oil pressure. i like to see with a glance.
coolant temp is in the dash cluster, not a issue to me.
No i have mine set up to display two things at once. I do have an option for it to scroll through 8 things....2 at a time but I don't like that feature

like i said, id rather just look at a real gauge thats there full time at a glance. you know where the needle belongs, so a quick look tells you if its low or not.
I like torque for that reason ^

I was going to get AeroForce gauges for my Imp, but never could settle on two or three. And then I decided I didn't want them THAT bad and sold my pillar gauge holder. Now I have a ScanForce II, and that does everything the AeroForce would do, but I can move it between vehicles.
Does the ScanGauge do CASE learn? That was kinda why I held out for the Aeroforce.
I had an Edge Insight CTS before I got the Aeroforce. It was nice, big colour screen, 8 displays at one, but it didn't read trans temp, so it sits on the shelf.
Only problem I have with torque is that it doesn't read the voltage correctly, it's about .5v too high. I checked it at the OBD port with a multimeter, and it's correct, but Torque is not.
Changed the oil from Valvoline to Mobil1, both were synthetic. Also tuned the DoD out of my GXP with HP Tuners and going to be getting a custom HP tune pretty soon. I had a couple shift points changed as well. I reset my MPG on the DIC to see how it will be effected. I got a big trip from Detroit up to Traverse City tomorrow with the family so I am interested to see.
I would have been there but work keeps me busy. I'm sure I'll meet you at some point.Quote:
