Kevman, you're still the man!

We'd sure like to hear your water temps while you're tracing this.

I'm used a scangauge II since new 7 years ago.

I would feel like driving blind without it since it gives voltage, temps, and corrected speed.

Temps of that engine is 193 deg f sitting around idling anytime of year with or without AC or heater. Driving with AC on hot day 215. Driving hard on track 209. Driving easy without AC up to 236. Car knows when it can run hotter for more efficiency....brilliant.

What's really funny about my s28i is that I put 4% lower diameter tires 225/40r18 instead of 225/45r18 and the scanguage is perfectly accurate on speed when I should have to correct it.

The scangauge is compact right in front of dash. It's easier to read than the stock gauges which has inaccurate speed anyway.
