    Pleasure...

    I have mine set to display
    "MAP" (Absolute Boost Pressure)
    "LPH" (Fuel economy )
    "COOLANT TEMP" (actual water temp as reported to the ECU - VERY handy)
    and the 4th one I alternate between SPEED, VOLTS or usually ENGINE LOAD.

    Hardly ever look at the Instrument Cluster anymore.

    My scangauge is on the way. Next on the list is an egt gauge.
    Can't wait then I can see where I am at with my fuel economy,egt and boost and start doing the normal mods from there.

    Hi Ordered my scangauge ( I used my laptop and connector for my commodore ) can't wait to use it. Ordered 2 gauge pillar pod - hunting down a EGT and boost gauge - Digital gauge is latest high tech but I think the analogue looks better - any opinions? Paul

    I've had worse nick names ET!

    You could try it with Nissan but I don't think it would work. From what I've heard when it comes to getting out of paying warranty claims Nissan are more slippery than a politicians promise.

    I've always got an opinion on everything Cobber...

    If by digital you mean one of the many digit readout displays then as a once upon a time in the past Instrumentation Engineer I prefer Analog for one very simple reason...

    On an analog display the needle being out of its normal place will catch your eye much earlier than a digital readout. If by digital you mean a digital representation of an analog sweep then again I lean towards old school analog but there are some sexy electronic instruments around. Just don't get one of them el cheapo looking "block" displays... speeeeeyuuuuu
