Scangauge II is THE BEST!!!!!!

I just install Scangauge II in my 97 maxima, and ITS THE BEST THING EVER!!!!!!!! Finally I know why my Zex nitrous wasn’t working properly. My throttle cable was opening to 89% not to a 100% that you need for your Zex nitrous to work of your throttle position sensor. Plus it's show so much more. Every one need to get one!!

yup i have one in my car. love it! mine only reads to 89 TPS also, but if you read in the little book it says some vehicles will not show 100% at WOT, and i believe the max is one of those vehicles.

this tool is worth it, i had two codes, pulled them, erased them, and went to get inspection/emissions with no problems. HIGHLY recommend with a nitrous setup.

It's not like you HAVE TO have it, it just a BIG PLUS. So you know what is going on with your car.

personally i dont need to be monitering it 24/7 instead i rather get something like a elmscan for the same price paired up with a palm. that way you can do datalogging as well as moniter stuff.

so it's the same thing, and you dont have to have a laptop in your car at all the time.
it's cool if you have a car comp. so you can connect it. that way you have all in one.

its has more then enough stuff for you to play with then the scangauge. But it requires a laptop or palm. yea its not the most convenience. but for the price of that and the price of laptop software you have a choice on how you want to spend you money. You can possibly do tuning with the laptop softare and such.

There's no such thing as tuning a fuel pump.

If you're running a wet shot, no, asides from with bigger fuel jets, the pressure is controlled by the fuel pressure, adding a bigger fuel pump won't cause you to run richer.
