    I dont have one anymore but i liked it. Like david said, the scangauge can do auto tranny temps in addition so if you have an auto, the scangauge might be better. I am not sure if newer models of ultragauge can monitor auto tranny temps. Mine was an older model and didnt have the capability, although i had a manual so it didnt matter to me.

    @MarX you need the MX1.3 I think. I had the Bluetooth one and it didnt work for me. But I like the scan gauge better, and its like $40 more

    I hit 200 degrees on some hill climbs last weekend. I swear the scangauge is just a paranoa making machine.

    It has 2 temp sensors. Program both. One you will see constantly spiking when your tranny is searching or torque converter is slipping. The other will stay pretty steady. I assume the steady one is a sensor after the cooler and the one that spikes is before the cooler.

    Are you doing the spindle swap? Or ditching the SC?
