Scanguage installed for IAT's and Boost monitoring et

Here is my scanguage II installed on my Sl55.

I can now see:

IAT's (Intake Temps) VERY IMPORTANT ON OUR 55's!
Boost pressure in PSI
Timing
coolant temp and much more

The color matches our dash perfectly as you can see from the pic. Easy to install. Just plug it into the OBDII port.

Here are more details.

If I can get 10 people we can have them for $149.99 each plus shipping. No tax.

scangauge refresh rate is pathetically slow. look into a different OBDII unit, like the dashdaq or dashdyno if you're serious into monitoring and datalogging like myself.

No longer stock '06 E55, A3 3.2 Quattro, GLE 400d, R107 280SL, Golf Polo
I got one , and was very happy but it stopped connecting to ECU after it was remapped, dunno why.. So keep this in mind if you mod.

The sample rate is slow, but for a dash type gauge mount its fine. I use it as a guage and not a datalogger. If you want a datalogger you should get Autoengenuity or similar.

The ideal setup is an OBD2 data "driver" that outputs to composite video - you can then attach to you cars aux video input. Simple but no one has done it yet.

Ya, I use the scanguage to see what my IAT's are manly. You don't need a crazy fast refresh rate for that.

It lets me know how my Intercooler Pump is doing.
