$200?

Total cost with shipping was $56.81. There's a rebate ($9.00?) but you have to register on their site and walk through some multi-page quiz to get to it. I haven't bothered to do that yet.

At $56 , around $100 - $125 delivered , $200 plus shipping

Got mine yesterday. It recognized 38 gauges on the 03 Vette. Takes a bit to calibrate for mileage/fuel consumption but from reading the manual it seems to be a well thought out device. Sure beats buying the big orange brick that the auto parts places sell.

Pretty small too. Not sure if this is something you want mounted permanently or not though. The max temp is 160 degrees and I'd be concerned in the hot Texas sun that it could get fried.

The only thing I wish it had was the ability to store a config for two vehicles.

Also noticed that the gauge did not read my AH/TC/ABS fault codes that are on the DIC right now. I think it only reads codes that set off the actual MIL.

What does everyone have for the main screen to watch? What is it set to?

I left it with the default gauge assignment.
I do like watching the Instantaneous MPG and Instantaneous Gallons/Hour.
The Time To Empty and Distance to Empty are cool too.
I find I don't look at the vehicle's factory single item display anymore.

I put an LS1 into a 240sx and hooked up the oil pressure sensor from an 02 Z06 to the PCM. Does this read oil pressure for you guys?

I just ordered one for my car too... I've been using my SCT Live Wire to display some of the gauge functions and it's a major PITA to set up each time... hope this thing works a little better.
